Area and Scope
Researchers in the field of
Life Sciences rely increasingly on information technology
to extract and manage relevant knowledge. The complex computational
and data management needs of life sciences research make
Grid technologies an attractive support solution. However,
many important issues must be addressed before the Life
Sciences Grid becomes commonplace. The scope of this workshop
focuses
on life science applications of grid systems especially
for research from bioinformatics to systems biology which
require
heterogeneous data integration from genome to phenome,
mathematical modeling and simulation from molecular to population
levels,
and high performance computing including parallel processing,
special hardware and grid computing.
Topics
The program committee
welcomes the submission of original manuscripts addressing
the problem of Grid Systems for Life Sciences. Authors
should report relevant experiences, present novel approaches
to
existing problems and raise important novel issues.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, those
in
the following list:
- Grid
architectures for life science
- Life
science applications on grid systems
- Computation
pipelines and workflows for life science data
integration
- Ontologies
and semantic web approaches for life sciences
- Mathematical
modeling and simulation systems for life sciences
- High
performance architectures and systems
for life sciences
Paper
Submission Authors are invited to submit original
and unpublished work. Papers should not exceed 10 single-spaced
pages on
A4 paper size, using at least 1 inch margins and
12-point font. Authors should submit a PDF or PostScript
(level 2)
file that will print on a PostScript printer. Electronic
submission through the symposium website is strongly
encouraged. Submission implies the willingness of at least
one of the
authors to register and present the paper.
