---------------------------------------------------------
Sorry for the delay for getting this to everyone.  Enclosed is the 
tentative agenda for the Division of Computers in Chemistry at the
Spring 1997 meeting, to be held in San Francisco 13-17 April 1997.

The Program Committee met in Orlando, and agreed to the agenda below.
Please note, until the final program is submitted to ACS, the
schedule is flexible, and may require some modification based on
increased number of abstracts for a given symposium.  However, we
will endeavor to stay as close to this agenda as possible.  

I have also included the addresses for the organizers for SF (following
the tentative agenda), as well as the proposed symposia for future
meetings through 1998.  In 1999, COMP will be celebrating its 25th
anniversery, and I am very interested in doing "something" different
for Anaheim (spring 1999).  If anyone has ideas related to COMP's
mission, history, and the history of computational chemistry, please
contact me (and be prepared to assist!!!).  I am also taking ideas
for sympsia for 1999.

The Division of Chemical Information (CINF) of ACS is soliciting papers 
for these two symposia to be held at the 1997 Spring  ACS Meeting in San 
Francisco, April 13 - 17.

The symposium on "Information Needs for Planning and Synthesis of 
Combinatorial Libraries" will focus on the availability, management and 
manipulation of data to plan combinatorial libraries of small organic 
compounds and on the use of available information to successfully carry 
out the syntheses.  Topics will include, but not are restricted to, 
efficient use of data to design and model reasonable scaffolds, 
availability of starting materials, developing synthetic methodologies 
based on existing information and technical aspects of actual syntheses, 
including the use of synthesizers.

For the second symposium, "Management of Spectroscopic Information" we 
invite presentations (oral and posters) that address the availability 
and generation of spectroscopic databases and their use in chemical 
research and development.  Papers discussing the development and 
usefulness of predictive programs are very much appreciated.

If you are interested in contributing to these symposia, either by 
presenting a paper/poster or by helping with the organization, please 
contact Guenter Grethe at the address listed below, preferrably by e-
mail.  PLEASE, DO NOT SEND YOUR REPLY TO THE LIST. Vendors are invited 
to present research-based papers but not product reviews.  Abstracts for 
both symposia are due by December 1, 1996.

      Computational Chemistry on MPP's, workstation clusters, and
                       other novel computer systems.

                        Spring, 1997 ACS meeting 
                        San Fransisco, California

Organized by:

  Timothy G. Mattson, Intel Corporation        tgm@ssd.intel.com   503-677-5627
  Theresa L. Windus,  Northwestern University  windus@chem.nwu.edu 847-491-3423

The goal of this symposium is to review the practice of computational 
chemistry on parallel, distributed and other novel computer systems.
We are seeking two kinds of papers:

   1. Papers about the algorithms and computer science required to 
      take advantage of these computer systems.  

   2. Papers about the computational chemistry that is possible 
      because of these novel computer systems.

We are planning to publish a proceedings for this symposium - most 
likely as a volume in the ACS Symposium Series.   

Abstracts are due by October 25.  To help with our planning, however,
we need to know by early August if you are planning to submit an abstract.  
Contact either of the organizers if you are interested in submitting a 
paper.

When you are ready to submit your abstracts, you can save yourself
the pain of using the old fashioned ACS blue-line forms by using
our fancy electronic abstracts system.   Check it out at

April 13-17, 1997, San Francisco, CA
 
SIMULATIONS OF INORGANIC AND ORGANOMETALLIC MATERIALS
  
Papers are solicited for the above symposium.  Due to a relocation of
the organizer during the past several months, would-be presenters may 
have encountered difficulty in contacting me, and I apologize for the 
inconvenience.
 
This symposium was conceived as a forum for the discussion of issues related
to the modeling of materials other than organic polymers.
 
At this time I am requesting input of titles/subjects of proposed 
presentations.  Topics include (but are not limited to) simulation
of metals, metal alloys, ceramics, hybrid or composite materials.
Simulation of surface and interphase phenomena including small 
molecule binding and catalysis would, I think, also be appropriate to this 
symposium. 
 
It is necessary to have the initial input NO LATER than 15 August 1996 for 
planning purposes.  Abstracts are required by October 25th 1996.  
Abstract forms can be obtained from ACS by calling 1-800-227-5558 (press
9-4-0); via the web at   http://ww.acs.org/memgen/meetings/abstract.htm; or 
by writing to ACS, 1155 Sixteenth Street, NW, Washington, D.C. 20036.

Subject: ACS Symposium on Pharmacophore Mapping, April 1997

To: chemistry@www.ccl.net

 
                           Call for submissions
 
                    Symposium on Pharmacophore Mapping
 
                    Division of Computers in Chemistry
                        American Chemical Society
                     San Francisco, April 13-18, 1997
 
Pharmacophore mapping, whether based on 3D structures or
substructure analysis, has been shown to be a powerful strategy for
suggesting new molecules to synthesize or use as the basis for a 3D
database search. Also, it is often an integral part of the analysis
of high-throughput screening data. Since there are many new applications
and new approaches, it seemed time to have a symposium on the topic.
 
This call for submissions is to test if there are enough people
with new information to present. If you are interested, please send
a title or subject of your proposed talk to me by August 15. I need
to tell the program committee how many sessions we will need. If we
go ahead, the abstracts will be due later in the fall. Before that time
I will issue a general call to give you a second chance. If you would
like to participate in this symposium, please also indicate if you
think a book would be a good idea.
