Aging in complex systems is studied via the sandpile model. Relaxation of avalanches in sandpiles is observed to depend on the time elapsed since the begining of the relaxation. Levy behavior is observed in the distribution of characteristic times. In this way, aging and self-organized criticality appear to be closely related.
