Algebraic Biology

Klappentext

This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Algebraic Biology. The conference served as an interdisciplinary forum for the presentation of research on all aspects of the application of symbolic computation in biology, including computer algebra, computational logic, and related methods. Papers also examine solutions to problems in biology using symbolic methods.
