Abstract

A complex system is generally regarded as being a network of elements in mutual interactions, which total
behavior cannot be deduced from that of its parts and their properties. Thus, the study of a complex phenomenon
requires a holistic approach considering the system in its totality. The aim of our approach is the design of a
unifying theoretical framework to define complex systems according to their common properties and to tackle
their modeling by generalizing percolation processes using pretopology theory.
