SAC 2021
For the past 35 years, the
ACM Symposium on Applied Computing
has been a primary gathering forum for applied
computer scientists, computer engineers, software engineers, and
application developers from around the world. SAC 2021 is
sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Group on Applied Computing
(SIGAPP), and will be held in Gwangju, South Korea.
Track Description
The ACM SAC 2021 Bioinformatics Track aims at promoting current advances in biological sciences, drug development and medicine relying on analytical methods that integrate mathematical, physical and computer sciences.
( show/hide more details).
The track is primary devoted to publish papers very focused on timely well-defined biological issues whose solution have benefited from the use of computational techniques or the implementation of new ones. The track solicits submission of papers presenting a biological problem in a comprehensive way and (part of) its solution obtained through the application of computational methods including analysis, modeling and simulation.
Manuscripts presenting highly original results in the field of applied biology and are proof of an interdisciplinary collaboration between biologists and computer scientists are within the scope of the BIO Track. Furthermore, although this Track considers the innovative computational and methodological aspects very relevant, it gives greater emphasis to contributions that show practical applications of computational methodologies to the solution of biological problems. In this light, unbalanced manuscripts relying heavily only on mathematical or algorithmic contents, or reporting a general description of the eventual application field of the computational methods do not fall into the primary scope of the track.
Algorithmic procedures for modelling and analysis of data are solicited in the following areas of interest:
- cell and molecular biology
- microbiology
- synthetic biology
- biochemistry
- pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics
- pharmacogenomics
- applied/computational/predictive epidemiology

Notice for authors
Paper registration is required, allowing the inclusion of the paper/poster in the conference proceedings. An author or a proxy attending SAC MUST present the paper: This is a requirement for the paper/poster to be included in the ACM/IEEE digital library. No-show of scheduled papers and posters will result in excluding them from the ACM/IEEE digital library.
