HARMONY 2011
HARMONY : The Hackathon on Resources for Modeling in Biology
It is being held at New York City,USA on April 18–22, 2011In 2010, the systems biology standards community inaugurated a new, broader series of meetings to replace, among other events, the individual SBML and SBGN workshops and BioPAX meetings. The new meetings, COMBINE (Computational Modeling in Biology Network) and HARMONY are a recognition of the fact that there are multiple allied standardization efforts that should work more closely together to ensure smooth interoperability.
The two meetings address different needs and community emphases. COMBINE is a workshop-style event with oral presentation, posters and breakout sessions. The first annual COMBINE meeting took place in Edinburgh from Oct 6th to 9th, 2010.
HARMONY will be a hackathon-type meeting, with a focus on development of the standards, interoperability and infrastructure. Unlike what happens at COMBINE meetings, there will be not be general discussions or oral presentations during HARMONY; instead, the time will be devoted to allowing hands-on hacking and interaction between people focused on practical development of software and standards.
