CALL FOR PAPER
3rd International Workshop on Biological Data Management (BIDM'05)
(In conjunction with DEXA 2005, Copenhagen, Denmark)

Technological advances in high-throughput techniques and efficient data
gathering methods
coupled with a world wide effort in computational biology have resulted in a
vast amount
of life science data often available in distributed and heterogeneous
repositories. These
repositories contain interesting information such as sequence and structure
data, annotations
for biological data, results of complex and expensive computations, bio-medical
publications,
and so on. Newer and more sophisticated computational techniques to analyze
such data are
also being developed and made available for public use at a rapid pace.
Nonetheless, the
multiplicity in the objectives, methods, representation, and platforms of these
data sources
and analysis tools have created an urgent and immediate need for research in
resource
integration and platform independent processing ofinvestigative queries
involving
heterogeneous data sources and analysis tools. It is now universally recognized
that a
database approach to analysis and management of biological data offers a
convenient, high
level, and efficient alternative to high volume biological data processing and
management.
Advances in database integration, query processing, web technology, work flow
systems, and
object-orientation can be leveraged to develop novel high-performance data
management systems
for biological applications.
Following the success of the last two International Workshop on Biological Data
Management, we are pleased to invite original contributions in biological data
management and
analysis for the 3rd International Workshop on Biological Data Management to be
held in
Copenhagen, Denmark.This year we encourage submission of papers in broad areas
of biological data
management, novel algorithms and analysis tools for life sciences data, and
integration of
biological resources. We particularly encourage submission of papers addressing
the issue of
processing queries and transactions in disparate heterogeneous biological
resources in a
database environment (i.e., integration of analysis tools with data
management systems).
In keeping with our mission, BIDM 2005 is intended to bring together
researchers in
biological data management, algorithms and tools development and provide a
common forum
for exchange of ideas and discussion. We solicit papers with important new
insights and
experiences on managing biological data, and integrating analysis tools and
algorithms
with database query processing techniques. Topics of interest lie at the
intersection of
data management and general bioinformatics research. Following is a
nonexclusive list of
topics of interest for this year.
* Database integration and interoperability
* Warehousing biological data
* Change management
* Biological data cleaning
* Information Modeling, metadata and data sharing
* Multidatabase indexing and multidatabase queries
* Genomic algebra and query languages
* Biological query processing and optimization
* Data semantic and control
* Ontology design
* Biological Workflows
* Knowledge discovery and data mining
* Algorithms for large scale and distributed biological databases
* Protein structure prediction
* Modeling and Analysis of Biochemical Pathways
* Recognition of Genes and Regulatory Elements
* Molecular Sequence analysis
* Genome comparative analysis
* Lab Information Management System (LIMS)
* Microarray data management and analysis
* Management of proteomic experimental data
* Management of Bio images
* XML and biological data management
* Biologist-friendly user interface design
