2nd Workshop on Computational Chemistry and Its Applications (2nd CCA)

(part of The International Conference on Computational Science May 27-30, 2007, Beijing, China)

Workshop website: http://pages.intnet.mu/ramasami/iccs_2007.htm

Description of Workshop

Computational chemistry is commonly used in chemical and interdisciplinary research.Computational chemistry is leading to a wide range of possibilities due to explosive increase in computer power and software capabilities.

The major goals of this workshop are to highlight the latest scientific advances within the broad field of computational chemistry in academia, industry and society. This workshop will provide the opportunity for researchers coming from corners of the world to be on a single platform for discussion, exchanging ideas and developing collaborations.

It will also be a suitable platform for researchers from different fields to meet so that ideas for new interdisciplinary research can emerge.

This is the second workshop after being a successful event in ICCS-2006. This workshop will consider only original work after peer reviewing. Accepted papers will be published in Lecture Notes in Computer Science.

Topics

Topics will include aspects of computational chemistry such as (but
are not limited to):

(i) Methods: Ab initio, semiempirical, force fields, density
functional

(ii) Applications: Kinetics, reaction mechanisms, catalysis,
molecular
properties, conformational analysis, thermodynamics,

(iii) Other research involving computational chemistry

(iv) Interdisciplinary computational research involving chemistry
will be specially invited.
