      WABI 2018 call for papers

http://algo2018.hiit.fi/wabi/


        Scope

All research in algorithmic work in bioinformatics, computational 
biology and systems biology. The emphasis is mainly on discrete 
algorithms and machine-learning methods that address important problems 
in molecular biology, that are founded on sound models, that are 
computationally efficient, and that have been implemented and tested in 
simulations and on real datasets. The goal is to present recent research 
results, including significant work-in-progress, and to identify and 
explore directions of future research.


        Paper Submission

Submissions must be formatted in LaTeX using the LIPIcs style and must 
not exceed 12 pages including references. Each paper must contain a 
succinct statement of the issues and of their motivation, a summary of 
the main results, and a brief explanation of their significance, all 
accessible to non-specialist readers. All submissions must be made 
online, through the EasyChair submission system, at:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wabi2018

You need to register on the EasyChair web site before submitting. A 
standard PDF file must be received by midnight on May 4, 2018 (time zone 
of your choice) in order for your submission to be considered. 
Simultaneous submission to another conference with published proceedings 
is not permitted, but simultaneous submission to a journal is allowed, 
provided that the authors notify the program chairs; if published in a 
journal, such a contribution will be published as a short abstract in 
the WABI proceedings. Depositing in arxiv.org or biorxiv.org is allowed.

Note, by submitting a paper the authors acknowledge that in case of 
acceptance at least one of the authors must register at ALGO 2018 
<http://algo2018.hiit.fi/> (http://algo2018.hiit.fi/) or WABI 2018, 
attend the conference, and present the paper.


        Proceedings

Accepted papers will be published in a proceedings in the LIPIcs Leibniz 
International Proceedings in Informatics.
