Abstract
The complexity (or simplicity) of a system can be characterized through very many paths.A quite interesting and operational one, which we follow here, consists in making use of entropic concepts.The thermodynamical and statistical-mechanical foundations of this approach, as well as its (analytical, computational, observational, and experimental) applications for natural, artificial and social systems will be briefly reviewed.
