About ICCN 2001
With the continued miniaturization and blending of technologies, advanced computational techniques in the nano and micro regimes are paramount in the advancement of all high technology regardless of its traditional domain.
The ICCN provides a forum for the interdisciplinary blending of computational efforts in biology, chemistry, physics and materials, founded on inherently similar ab initio approaches but applied towards traditionally distinct disciplines.
Special Sessions
- Structure Based Drug Design: Theory, Computation and Practice
Fred Cohen, University of California at San Francisco
Dirksen Bussiere, Chiron Corporation
- Structural Genomics
Kurt Krause, University of Houston
- Atomic and Molecular Scale Modeling of Materials
Niels Gronbech-Jensen, University of California Davis and Berkeley Laboratory
- Nanoscale Modeling of Front-End Processing in Silicon
Wolfgang Windl, Motorola
- Quantum Mechanics & Computational Modeling of Soft Matter
Lawrence Pratt, Los Alamos National Laboratory
Stephen Paddison, Motorola
A current frontier of computational modeling involves soft matter and chemical questions that require quantum mechanical methods. This segment of ICCN emphasizes "ab initio" computer simulations of solutions and soft matter, O(N) algorithms for electronic structure computation, and QM/MM models for condensed matter biology, chemistry, and materials science.
