2008 IEEE CONGRESS ON EVOLUTIONARY COMPUTATION 

HONG KONG, June 1-6, 2008

SPECIAL SESSION ON EVOLUTIONARY COMPUTATION IN BIOINFORMATICS AND COMPUTATIONAL 
BIOLOGY

Bioinformatics and computational biology present a number of difficult 
optimization problems with large search spaces. Recent applications of 
evolutionary computation in this area suggest that they are well-suited to this 
area of research. This special session will highlight applications of 
evolutionary computation to a broad range of topics. Particular interest will be 
directed towards novel applications of evolutionary computation to problems in 
these areas.

The bioinformatics special session has been a part of CEC since 1999 and is 
soliciting high quality papers of original research and application papers that 
have not been published elsewhere and are not under consideration for 
publication elsewhere. All papers will be rigorously reviewed by at least 3 
reviewers. Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE CEC'08 proceedings. 
There is a clear interest in both the computational intelligence community and 
biology communities for this special session.

TOPICS INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:

Drug docking, protein folding, regulatory network, sequence alignment, 
phylogenetics, RNA structure, genomics, proteomics, metabolics, medicine, 
ecological modeling

IMPORTANT DATES:

*       Paper Submission: 1 December 2007 
*       Decision Notification:  1 February 2008
*       Camera-Ready Submission: 1 March 2008

PAPER SUBMISSION:

Electronic web submission in PDF format. See http://www.wcci2008.org/.
