We have accepted 8 of 14 papers submitted to the track.
The Acceptance Rate for this track is 57%. We would like to thank all the
researchers who submitted their work to the track.
For second year, we will be running a Special Issue of
International Journal of Bioinformatics Research and Applications (IJBRA)
on "Ontologies for Bioinformatics II" in early 2008.Current
issue of Ontologies for Bioinformatics, to be published in 2007 received 24
papers of which 8 are accepted.
In this track we will broadly cover current research on
development biomedical ontologies, and various issues in biomedical
informatics addressed by these ontologies. Track will consist of papers in a
biomedical informatics sub discipline, refereed by international program
committee. Papers selected for this special track should report on
significant unpublished work suitable for publication as a conference paper.
It is important that each published paper has acceptable technical depth to
be published in the CBMS proceedings by IEEE CS Press. This track will
broadly address following areas:
Conceptual Models for Biological and Medical Data
Biomedical Data Integration, Analysis and
Interoperability
Support of Ontologies for Biological Information
Retrieval and Web Services
Tools for Development and Management of Biomedical
Ontologies
Last year the special track on ONTOLOGIES FOR BIOMEDICAL
SYSTEMS at CBMS 2006 got a good response and some high quality papers. We have
accepted 8 of 17 papers submitted to the track. More information about this
track can be found at:
