European Conference on Computational Biology 2002 In conjunction with the German Conference on Bioinformatics 2002 FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS organized by the Center for Bioinformatics Saar ECCB 2002 October 6-9 2002 Congress Centrum Saar Saarbruecken, Germany Conference website: http://www.ECCB2002.de The ECCB conference provides an outstanding opportunity to present cutting edge research in Computational Biology. It is a multi-disciplinary conference that bridges the field of computer science, molecular biology, biochemistry, pharmaceutics, and medicine by bringing together involved scientists from all over the world. The ECCB 2002 marks the start of a revolving scheme, in which each year, another of the national computational biology conferences (France, UK, Scandinavia, etc.) plays the role of the European conference. Papers reporting on original research in all areas of computational molecular biology are sought, including surveys of important recent results/directions. Typical but not exclusive topics of interest include development and application of advanced computational methods for biological problems including computational techniques such as Machine Learning Pattern Recognition Knowledge Representation Databases Combinatorics Stochastic Modeling String and Graph Algorithms Linguistic Methods Robotics Constrain Satisfaction Parallel Computation Biological areas of interest include but are not limited to Molecular Structure Genomics Molecular Sequence Analysis Evolution Phylogenetics Metabolic Pathways Regulatory Networks Development Control Recognition of genes and regulatory elements Gene expression Gene networks Combinatorial libraries and drug design Computational proteomics Analysis of gene variations MANUSCRIPT DEADLINES Deadline for paper submission: April 8th, 2002, midnight CET Notification of acceptance/rejection: May 25th, 2002 Deadline for final paper versions: June 15th, 2002, midnight CET NOTIFICATION All submissions will be reviewed by several members of the ECCB 2002 Programm Committee. Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection by mail. A final copy of each accepted paper will be required subsequently. An author of each accepted paper is expected to attend the conference and present the paper; otherwise alternative arrangements should be made to have the paper presented. All accepted papers will appear in the published proceedings that will be available at the time of the conference. MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION A manuscript should start with a succinct statement of the problem, the results achieved, their significance and a comparison with previous work. This material should be understandable to non-specialists. A technical exposition directed to the specialist should follow. The length, excluding cover page and bibliography, should not exceed 12 pages. The manuscript should be easy to read, using at least 11 point font size on letter format and double spacing with no less than a 2.5 cm margin all around. If authors believe that more details are absolutely necessary to substantiate the claims of the paper, they may include a clearly marked appendix. An email address for the contact author should be included. Manuscripts that deviate significantly from these guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits. MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION Send your manuscript via e-mail to ECCB2002@bioinf.uni-sb.de You will receive confirmation of receipt (or notification that the manuscript was unprintable) within a day. Your confirmation will go to the e-mail address from which the manuscript was sent. Please contact us if you do not hear from us. To be considered, your submission must conform to these simple rules. The file must be an e-mail attachment, not embedded in the body of the message. The file format must be PostScript or PDF. The printed manuscript must contain the e-mail and street address of the corresponding author. The following suggestions are recommendations only. Your file should be small because files over a few megabytes may not survive e-mail. Your file should be compressed, preferably with bzip2, gzip, compress or zip. Compression reduces the size of your e-mail message, and provides us with a simple test for e-mail corruption. POSTERS ECCB 2002 will include a poster session. Accepted posters will appear in a special poster book. Poster submission instructions will be posted on this web site. VENUE Saarbruecken is located in the heart of Europe close to Germany's borders with France and Luxembourg. Information technology, biotechnology and knowledge management are being promoted as the major platforms for future development and growth of the region. The conference itself will take place in Saarbruecken's Congress Hall which is located in the city center. EXCURSIONS There will be an excursion to the Voelklingen Ironworks, part of the UNESCO world cultural heritage program including a guided tour and a banquet.
