In the Spotlight: Bioinformatics, Computational Biology and Systems Biology

Agents in bioinformatics, computational and systems biology

The adoption of agent technologies and multi-agent systems constitutes an emerging area in bioinformatics. In this article, we report on the activity of the Working Group on Agents in Bioinformatics (BIOAGENTS) founded during the first AgentLink III Technical Forum meeting on the 2nd of July, 2004, in Rome. The meeting provided an opportunity for seeding collaborations between the agent and bio...

Fuzzy Systems in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology

Introducing a new hobby for other people may inspire them to join with you. Reading, as one of mutual hobby, is considered as the very easy hobby to do. But, many people are not interested in this hobby. Why? Boring is the reason of why. However, this feel actually can deal with the book and time of you reading. Yeah, one that we will refer to break the boredom in reading is choosing fuzzy syst...

Preface: Computational Systems-Biology and Bioinformatics

Systems biology and bioinformatics are widely recognized as the fields of biological science that have been developed very rapidly in this century. In these fields, there is a much-needed development of computational tools to deal with a monumental amount of genomic and post-genomic data, aiming at systems-level understanding in biology. The Third International Conference on Computational Syste...

Bioinformatics and Computational Systems Biology of Cancer

Four decades of cancer molecular biology research have led to the identification of many molecular determinants of this pathology, and showed that they are organized in pathways which in turn are tightly interconnected in a complex network of interactions which covers essential cell processes (proliferation, death, differentiation, DNA repair, immune response...). The existence of crosstalks, f...
