DILS 2010: Data Integration in the Life Sciences
Sweden - Gothenburg

Hosted by: Chalmers University of Technology and Linköping University
Venue: Lindholmen Science Park
Dates: Aug 25, 2010 through Aug 27, 2010

Call for Proceedings Presentations: 2010-04-18 through 2010-04-18
 
Description
 
The development and increasingly widespread deployment of high throughput experimental methods in the life sciences is giving rise to numerous large, complex and valuable data resources. This foundation of experimental data underpins the systematic study of organisms and diseases, which increasingly depend on the development of models of biological systems. The development of these models often requires integration of diverse experimental data resources; once constructed, the models themselves become data and present new integration challenges for tasks such as interpretation, validation and comparison.

DILS provides a forum for the discussion of emerging challenges for data integration in the life sciences, and the techniques that seek to address them. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Architectures and data management techniques for the life sciences
* Query processing and optimization for biological data
* Biological Data sharing and update propagation
* Query formulation assistance for scientists
* Modeling of life sciences data
* Biological Metadata management
* Annotation in scientific data integration
* Provenance modeling and management for the life sciences
* Scientific Workflows and analysis pipelines
* Laboratory information management systems in biology
* Biological data quality and data cleaning
* Life sciences ontologies
* Semantic web for the life sciences
* Mining integrated life sciences data
* Text mining in the life science literature
* Machine learning in data integration in the life sciences
* Grid Computing and Grid technologies for the life sciences
* System prototypes for biology
* Commercial solutions in the life sciences
* Integration challenges presented by new kinds of biological data
* Scientific results arising from innovative data integration solutions
