Chaos is a term that refers to dynamical
systems that showcase extreme sensitivity to initial conditions and long-term
aperiodic behavior. These phenomena that characterize chaotic systems emerge in
a plethora of disciplines, from physics, to engineering, biology, economics and
more. Thus, chaos is prevalent in most genres of the exact sciences.
Moreover, apart from being used as a modelling
tool, chaos has been used as a mechanism in numerous applications relating to
encryption and security, as a fast source of randomness and unpredictability. Dr.
Moysis will present a collection of such applications and techniques. First,
some general information will be given on chaotic systems, their behavior, and
the tools used for their analysis. Then, simplified examples of applications
will be presented and explained.
