CEC 2004 - Call for Papers 
Special session on Evolutionary Computation in Bioinformatics and Computational
Biology

The sixth Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC 2004), sponsored
by the IEEE Neural Networks Society, IEE, and the Evolutionary
Programming Society, will be held in Portland Marriott Downtown,
Portland, Oregon, USA, June 19-23. 2004. See http://cec2004.org for
more details.


Bioinformatics and computational biology present a number of difficult
optimization problems with large search spaces. Recent applications of
evolutionary computation in this area suggest that they are well
suited to this area of research. This special session will highlight
applications of evolutionary computation to a broad range of topics
including drug docking, protein folding, sequence alignment, genomics,
proteomics, metabolics, and medicine. Particular interest will be
directed towards novel applications of evolutionary computation to
problems in these areas.


Submission deadlines

Submission of papers: 31. January 2004
Notification of acceptance: 15. February 2004
Camera-ready paper: 1. March 2004


Papers should follow the formatting guidelines for CEC2004 regular papers (see
http://cec2004.org/Submission.htm for more details), and should be submitted
through the CEC04 submission website (see
http://cec2004.org/review/upload.php). Remember to select the "Evolutionary
computation in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology" in the "Additional

Dear sir,
 I have known the reason why the G03 program asked me to readd those parameters.
Because these atoms are at the layer boundary, so they are replaced with other
simple atoms, thus I must input parameter for these "other simple atoms".

Dear cclers,

Do anyone know how to print out the hessian matrix for large system in
GAUSSIAN98 calculations? It looks like only output files of small 
molecules would contain the hessian matrix. Do any other users have similar 
experience?

Any comment will be appreciated. Thanks for your help in advance.

Larry

Dear CCLers,

Happy new year!

I have one question for CHARMm about equilibration. Generally, the
calculation is started from the X ray structure, then heating,
equilibrating by velocity scale, and lastly production run without
velocity scale in the NVE MD simulation. However, I found that many of the
authors do not check the system to make sure it has been equilibrated
before they take the production run. Fro example, Some authors observe the
temperature  is increasing with the potential energy drifting down in the
production run. However, they still do the analysis. Is that a problem?

Thanks for all your help,

Wei Shi

Certainly, a system with increasing T and decreasing potential energy is
not at equilibrium, but obviously still relaxing.  Depending on the
magnitude of the drift and the analysis, the results may be misleading.

	Some additional notes about CHARMM usage--

NPT ensemble may be better, at least for equilibration after heating; a
symmetric lattice such as cubic, truncated octahedron, or rhombic
dodecahedron is usually appropriate for a solvated protein.

I've observed quicker equilibration with velocity assignment (as opposed
to velocity scaling).

I guess it depends on your projects-- most of my CHARMM simulations
start with coordinates from an extensive model building procedure
