Abstract

the measure of complexity for a system is called degree of complexity. But until now, there is no commonly means to suitable for all complexity systems. In generally, we measure the degree of complexity for a system from one point of view or parameter. Currently, structure complexity, computational complexity, description complexity, and effective complexity are some well-rounded measure and we can use these means to measure the complexity of a system how complex it has.
