Produktbeschreibung

This book constitutes the strictly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the German Conference on Bioinformatics, GCB'96, held in Leipzig, Germany, in September/October 1996. The volume presents 18 revised full papers together with three invited papers; these contributions were selected after a second round of reviewing from the 91 conference presentations. The book addresses current issues in computational biology and biologically inspired computing. The papers are organized in sections on biological and metabolic pathways, sequence analysis, molecular modeling, visualization, and formal languages, and DNA.

Autorenporträt

Thomas Lengauer, born 1952, studied Mathematics and Informatics at Berlin and Stanford. After a brief stay at the Bell Laboratories, he held various academic positions at the universities of Saarbruecken, Paderborn, and Bonn. From 1992 to 2001, he headed the Institue for Algorithms and Scientific Computing at the GBM in Sankt Augustin (Germany). Since 2001, he is director at the Max-Planck-Institute for Informatics in Saarbruecken (Germany).Professor Lengauer has recently been awarded the Konrad-Zuse-Medal, the highest honor of the German Informatics Society.
