Aims and Scope
Complexity is a cross-disciplinary journal focusing on the rapidly expanding science of complex adaptive systems. The purpose of the journal is to advance the science of complexity. Articles may deal with such methodological themes as chaos, genetic algorithms, cellular automata, neural networks, and evolutionary game theory. Papers treating applications in any area of natural science or human endeavor are welcome, and especially encouraged are papers integrating conceptual themes and applications that cross traditional disciplinary boundaries. Complexity is not meant to serve as a forum for speculation and vague analogies between words like “chaos,” “self-organization,” and “emergence” that are often used in completely different ways in science and in daily life.

The reviewers' comments were very professional and strict, and the editing process was very fast. The speed of acceptance depends on the speed of the reviewers' review and also luck. The time from submission to publication in this journal is at least 4-6 months.
For Hindawi Publishing, if you see acceptance within a month, it can be basically confirmed that it was submitted through special channels. Have you not noticed that many special issues have a bunch of articles in fields like art, philosophy, language, and sports, which use various machine learning or artificial intelligence algorithms? They are all bought by the authors through channels. Complexity is not as serious in this aspect. Finally, if Chinese journals can be made open access on CNKI, the publication quantity will greatly increase, and I believe no one would be willing to spend money to submit to SCI.
