Call for abstract: Entropy 2020: The Scientific Tool of the 21st Century 'Entropy 2020: The Scientific Tool of the 21st Century' will be held in Porto, Portugal, on 6–8 May 2020. This conference will bring together leading researchers from both academia and industry to share their recent findings related to entropy. The concept of entropy initially emerges from the scope of physics, but it is now clear that entropy is deeply related to information theory and the process of inference. Today, entropic techniques have found a broad spectrum of applications in all branches of science.
