Joint Sessions
Announcement and Call for Participation
The largest gathering in the field worldwide, ICCN 2007, in collaboration with
the Nanotech 2007, is the premier technical forum
for presenting the latest research and development in computational methods,
tools and applications at the nano scale.
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 modeling approaches but applied towards traditionally distinct
disciplines.
Molecular Simulation
Selected Nanotech Proceedings papers will be reviewed
and invited into a Special Issue of Molecular Simulation.
For consideration into this Special Issue of Molecular Simulations, please
select the "Submit to Molecular Simulation" button during the on-line submission
procedure. Please note that you may only select a single journal during the
submission process.
