Workshop on Informatic Phenomena

Second Annual Workshop

Tulane University
New Orleans, LA USA
October 5 - 9, 2009



The Workshops on Informatic Phenomena are an annual series of meetings focusing in information flow and its applications in a wide range of disciplines. These areas emanate from mathematics and computer science, and include areas such as classical and quantum information and computing, physics, computational chemistry, systems biology and economic game theory. The workshops are aimed at bringing together researchers in these disparate areas in order to facilitate interactions between them and to inspire new collaborations among these and other relevant areas. The organizers of the series are Keye Martin (NRL) and Michael Mislove (Tulane).
