2nd CfP: Computational Models for Cell Processes 2009

Second International Workshop on Computational Models for Cell Processes Eindhoven, the Netherlands, November 3, 2009 http://combio.abo.fi/compmod09/ In conjunction with Formal Methods 2009 -------------------------------------------------------------------- === Deadline for submissions: June 29, 2009 === === Proceedings will be published in the new EPTCS series === -------------------------------------------------------------------- THE MEETING ----------- Computational systems biology is an exciting new application area for applied mathematics and computer science. This workshop of the 16th International Symposium on Formal Methods fosters an excellent platform gathering researchers in formal methods and related fields that are interested in the wealth of opportunities and challenges in systems biology. SUBMISSIONS ----------- We seek papers and extended abstracts in all areas that relate to the relevance and potential of formal methods and computational modeling/simulation in systems biology. In particular, we welcome contributions that present biological processes requiring special computational and formal techniques that have not been investigated so far in the context of formal methods, as well as extensions of formal methods formalisms introduced to improve their applicability to biology. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Formal models for cellular pathways - Qualitative biological modeling - Quantitative formal methods - Theoretical comparison of formalisms for biological processes - Biologically-inspired extensions to formal methods, concurrency theory, or logical methods - Differential, discrete and/or stochastic modeling languages - Reconstruction of biological networks based on empirical data - Decomposition and modularization of large biological networks - Applications of formal methods and computational modeling - Membrane systems as a modeling platform Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts or full papers of up to 15 pages formatted according to EPTCS guidelines. Electronic submissions should be formatted in PDF. Simultaneous submission to other conferences or workshops with published proceedings is not allowed. A special issue of a high-level international journal, based on the workshop, is planned after the workshop.
