LOCALE: Eilat, Israel
DATES: September 10-13, 2006

International Workshop on Distributed, High-Performance and Grid Computing in Computational Biology (GCCB 2006) to be held as part of 5th European Conference on Computational Biology (ECCB 2006)

The GCCB workshop will bring together computational biologists, bioinformaticians and life scientists who have researched and applied distributed, high-performance and grid computing technologies in the context of computational biology and bioinformatics. The workshop will discuss innovative work in progress and important new directions. By sharing the insights, discussing ongoing work and the results that have been achieved, we hope the workshop participants will glean a comprehensive view of the state of the art in this area and identify emerging and future research issues. The goal of the GCCB workshop is to make a valuable contribution in encouraging and shaping future work in this field.

The workshop is structured into a one-day session consisting of invited speeches from industry and academia, and presentations of the papers selected for the workshop. Please monitor the workshop Web site (http://gccb2006.ulster.ac.uk) for details on invited speakers, the workshop program, and other aspects. The workshop proceedings are expected to be published in Springer's Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics series.
