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

Since 2005, we are organizing an international conference
"Algebraic Biology" that focuses on the application of computer
algebra, automated reasoning, hybrid algebraic and numeric
computation, which is also called symbolic computation, to all
types of problems from biology: AB'05, AB'07, and AB'08. These
conferences were quite successful. For the next issue of this
conference, we would like to extend the range of mathematical
methods.

In 2010, we will organize "Algebraic and Numeric Biology"
(ANB'10), which is renamed after our traditional name,
"Algebraic Biology", to consider its wider scope of mathematical
methods, especially numeric computation. ANB'10 will be
held at the RISC Institute, which has a long tradition in
symbolic methods.

The RISC conference facilities include our "RISC Castle", an 800
years old remodeled medieval building with nice restaurant.

ANB'10 is an international forum to promote discussion and
interaction between researchers who apply different
computational approaches to various issues in biology / life
sciences. The conference covers all aspects of applications of
algebraic and numeric approaches in biology, e.g.,

    * mathematical modeling
    * model identification
    * system analysis and design
    * system verification
    * system synthesis
    * simulation
    * parameter optimization
    * process control and design
    * optimization
    * etc.

using

    * polynomial methods
    * group theory
    * rewriting
    * automated reasoning
    * automata theory
    * formal language
    * combinatorics
    * graph theory
    * artificial intelligence
    * differential algebra
    * local analysis
    * hybrid symbolic numerical methods
    * approximate and numerical methods
    * etc.

in various computing paradigms like

    * sequential
    * parallel
    * distributed
    * grid computing
    * cellular
    * genetic
    * etc.


SUBMISSION
==========

Authors are invited to submit recent results including
significant work-in-progress, and identify and explore new
directions of research 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material intended for the referees but not for publication in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.
