SUBMISSION DEADLINE: APRIL 12, 2013 (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:
- MPI implementations in Bioinformatics.
- Parallel and distributed algorithms in Bioinformatics.
- Workload partitioning strategies in Bioinformatics.
- Memory-efficient algorithms in Bioinformatics.
- Parallel tools and applications in Bioinformatics.
- Multicore and cluster computing in Bioinformatics.
- Supercomputing in Bioinformatics.
- Grid/Cloud/P2P computing in Bioinformatics.
- Volunteer computing in Bioinformatics.
- Hardware accelerators (GPUs, FPGAs, Cell processors, etc.) in 
Bioinformatics.

With regard to the Bioinformatics problems, many different alternatives 
exist: 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.
