Description |
|
| NEW: Best papers to be published in Journal of Biomedical Semantics. The DILS conference is an interdisciplinary forum on advances in data integration, data management and data analysis for the life sciences. Researchers and professionals from biology, medicine, computer science and engineering are invited to contribute their latest results. Of particular interest are topics related to enabling the use of Big Data in life science research and applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Big Data Integration for the life sciences - Ontology mappings and evolution - Large-scale data analysis for the life sciences - 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 - Biomedical data integration issues in eScience - Laboratory information management systems in biology (including workflow systems) - Quality assurance in integrated biological data repositories - Biomedical metadata management (including provenance) - Mining integrated life sciences data and text resources - Standards for biomedical data integration and annotation - Scientific results arising from innovative data integration solutions - Exposing biomedical data for integration (APIs, Linked Open Data, SPARQL endpoints) - Creation and use of clinical data repositories - Data integration in clinical and translational research - Integration of genotypic and phenotypic data - Challenges and opportunities with big data in the life sciences - Ethical, legal and social issues with biomedical data integration. DILS 2014 invites three types of papers: - Full research papers (up to 15 pages) - Short research papers (8 pages) - Industry/application/experience papers (8 pages). Papers are to be prepared using LNCS templates and submitted using the EasyChair site: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dils2014. The proceedings of DILS will be published by Springer in Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics. The authors of the best papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their DILS paper for publication in a supplement of the Journal of Biomedical Semantics. The extended versions will then go through another fast reviewing process and, if accepted for publication, there will be a publication fee. |
