AIMS AND SCOPE
==============

The Second International Conference on Algebraic Biology, AB'07, is an 
international forum to promote discussion and interaction between 
researchers who intend to apply symbolic computation - computer algebra 
and computational logic - to various issues in biology.

The conference covers all aspects of applications of algebraic and 
logic methods in biology, including, but not restricted to:

    * polynomial methods
    * group theoretical methods
    * rewriting methods
    * automated reasoning methods
    * automata methods
    * formal language methods
    * combinatoric methods
    * symbolic-numeric algorithms (sequential, parallel, distributed, 
      grid processing)

for

    * mathematical modeling
    * model identification
    * system analysis and design
    * system verification
    * parameter fitting
    * genome comparison
    * sequence and structure analysis
    * evolutionary analysis
    * network inference
    * optimization

and other problems in biology. 


SUBMISSION
==========

Authors are invited to submit original papers that have not been submitted 
for publication elsewhere. Submissions should be at most 15 pages including 
references, prepared in LaTeX and formatted according to the Springer llncs 
style (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html). Additional material 
intended for the referees but not for publication in the final version may 
be placed in a clearly marked appendix that is not included in the page limit.

Submitted papers will be peer-reviewed, and the accepted papers will appear 
in the proceedings before the Conference. We are currently negotiating with 
Springer to publish the proceedings within the Lecture Notes in Computer 
Science (LNCS) series.
