Special Issue - dedicated to Professor Milan Randic on
theoccasion of the 70th birtday

You are invited to contribute a paper to the special
issue of
the Internet Electronic Journal of Molecular Design,
http://www.biochempress.com,
dedicated to Professor Milan Randic. The topic of
the paper can be any original contribution regarding
computer-assisted molecular design applications in
chemistry,
biochemistry, biology, chemical and pharmaceutical
industry,
including:
- Computer-aided organic synthesis
- Chemical structure and reactivity investigated with
molecular mechanics,
quantum chemistry, and molecular dynamics methods
- Definition, calculation and evaluation of novel
structural descriptors
- Chemical database searching, clustering, similarity
and diversity measure
- Prediction of physico-chemical properties with
Quantitative
Structure-Property Relationships (QSPR)
- Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships (QSPR)
models for biological
activity, toxicity, mutagenicity, and carcinogenicity
- Prediction of chromatographic retention parameters
and design of stationary
phases for chromatography
- Modeling of bioorganic compounds, such as proteins,
enzymes,
and nucleic acids
- New algorithms for modeling chemical and biochemical
phenomena, such
as global optimization methods, simulated annealing,
neural networks,
genetic algorithms, ant colony algorithm
- Design of special materials, catalysts, high energy
compounds, polymers,
molecular machines
