*Call for Presentations*

<>INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM
*ON** WEB SERVICES FOR COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY **AND BIOINFORMATICS*
*May 26 & 27, 2005

**Sponsored by Sun Microsystems**
Organized by Virginia Bioinformatics Institute (VBI)*
*At Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University**
Location:  Virginia Bioinformatics Institute Conference Facilities**
Donaldson Brown Hotel & Conference Center*<>*
Blacksburg, Virginia

*The deadline for submission of the Call for Presentations is January 
31, 2005.  Please feel free to forward this message.

This Call is soliciting presentations for the* /International Symposium 
on Web Services for Computational Biology and Bioinformatics/.  *An 
increasing number of groups are providing access to data and 
computational resources through web services. Through providing this 
access, challenges can occur for hardware, software, and system 
management, which need to be resolved for web services to be 
successful.  Also, the number of deployed web applications in the field 
of Computational Biology is increasing; thereby, leading to scientific 
results generated through the use of distributed resources.**

We are looking for contributions in the following areas:

    * Architecture (SGE, Portals Architectures, Open Grid)
    * Technical Issues (Scheduling, Economics/Accounting/Cost Recovery,
      Security)
    * Web Service-Based Applications
    * Scientific Results Using Web Service-Based Applications

The expected length of each presentation will be 30 minutes. If you 
would like to present, please provide the following information:

    * Title of Presentation//
    * Abstract (300 words)//
    * Contact Information //
