Full Paper Submissions (Proceedings Track)

The aims of the proceedings track are to present recent new results of both theoretical and practical research, to show new applications, to demonstrate systems, and to indicate directions of future research of bioinformatics. Papers in all areas related to works that are ultimately devoted to the computational understanding of biological systems on a molecular basis will be considered.

The following journals have agreed to consider GIW/ISCB-Asia 2014 proceedings track presentations for publication:

Bioinformatics
IEEE/ACM Transactions on Computational Biology
BMC Genomics
BMC Systems Biology
Journal of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology
In particular, we plan to compile GIW/ISCB-Asia 2014 associated special issues for BMC Genomics/Systems Biology, IEEE/ACM TCB and JBCB. Papers must not have been previously published and must not be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. All submissions will be peer-reviewed and each accepted paper will be recommended for publication in one of the above 5 journals. All papers should be submitted electronically in PDF format via:

https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=giw2014

In general, you should use the template of the journal whose preferred themes are closest to your submission. For example, papers that are more algorithmic in nature are slightly preferred at TCBB, papers that are more genomics / systems biology modeling in nature best fit BMC Genomics / BMC Systems Biology respectively. Select the button of the journal you think your manuscript fit best when you submit your manuscript through the submission server. Note that you need to pay publication fees in case your manuscript will be selected for publication in BMC Genomics or BMC Systems Biology (or in some other cases, such as when selecting the open access option for Bioinformatics, so please check the website of the relevant journal for more information). Check the button to state that you can pay the fee in these cases. Otherwise, your manuscript will not be selected for publication in these two journals.

At least one of the authors of the accepted papers for the Proceedings Track are required to make the presentation at the conference, and must register and pay to attend the conference.
