SUBMISSION DEADLINE: MAY 31, 2014 (EXTENDED)

We seek original, high-quality research papers, clearly focused on the
application of Parallelism to any possible Bioinformatics problem. In
particular, contributions are solicited on, but are not limited to, the
following topics:
- Cluster computing in Bioinformatics.
- Data-intensive Bioinformatics (including Big Data storage and processing).
- Parallel and distributed algorithms in Bioinformatics.
- Workload partitioning strategies in Bioinformatics.
- Memory-efficient algorithms in Bioinformatics.
- Parallel tools and applications in Bioinformatics.
- Multicore computing in Bioinformatics.
- Supercomputing in Bioinformatics.
- Cloud/Grid/P2P computing in Bioinformatics.
- Volunteer computing in Bioinformatics.
- Hardware accelerators (GPUs, FPGAs, etc.) in Bioinformatics.
- Green computing in Bioinformatics.
- Emerging parallel programming models in Bioinformatics.
- Parallel performance evaluation, analysis, and optimization in
Bioinformatics.
- Parallel visualization, modelling, simulation, and exploration in
Bioinformatics.


With regard to the Bioinformatics problems, many different alternatives
exist: bioinformatics applied to biomedicine; biological sequence
analysis, comparison and alignment; motif, gene and signal
recognition/discovery; molecular evolution; phylogenetics and
phylogenomics; determination or prediction of the structure of RNA and
protein; DNA twisting and folding; gene expression and gene regulatory
networks; deduction of metabolic pathways; microarray design and
analysis; proteomics; functional genomics; molecular docking; design of
DNA sequences for DNA computing; etc.
