SUMMARY:The Right Mix: Common Lisp in Bioinformatics\, Systems Biology and
  in the Larger Semantic Network World
DESCRIPTION:Working with CL nowadays is a choice based on a long programmi
 ng experience (and/or lazyness and or/inertia). Many times this choice is
  hard because of a number of entrenched limitations of the CL (or simply 
 Lispy) world: lack of many agreed upon\, modern and portable extensions\,
  and lack of new programmers being the most visible. Yet\, this talk will
  argue that the situation has improved and that CL is even more "the righ
 t mix" for many researchers in the sciences\, and\, in particular\, in th
 e fields I have been working for a few years.\n\nFor CL\, being the right
  mix comes from the strenghts of the standard and of the nature itself of
  the language. The ability to build code with more than decent numerical 
 performance and the ability to morph in any (declarative) DSL are the key
  characteristics that make CL the right tool for many of the sciences.\n\
 nBioinformatics and Systems Biology are two relatively broad terms that s
 erve to describe a number of system and algorithmic solutions to problems
  stemming from the needs of biologists and clinicians. Very roughly speak
 ing\, these terms cover the range from "sequence analysis" (DNA\, RNA\, a
 nd protein) to statistical interpretation of "high throughput experiments
 " (micro-array and new ion-trap protein studies)\, to model simulation an
 d testing of metabolic\, regulatory and signaling pathways. The numerical
  capabilities of CL do fit well with these problems. On the other end\, t
 hese problems require the support of many data manipulation\, sharing and
 \, above all\, description systems that nowadays are continuously crystal
 lized in different "ontologies" and "controlled vocabularies" which are t
 hen rendered in XML/RDF. CL systems for solving such "representation" tas
 k predate all of these efforts and it should come to no surprise that Lis
 p-based systems provide a very good platform to build more expressive DSL
 's capable of improving the inference capabilities of the tools needed by
  biologists and physicians.\n\nAt this point in time\, the "basic library
 " situation for CL is good enough to support its use in the field. CLSQL 
 and XML parsing libraries are the basis for such use. Numerical libraries
  abound\, as well as web development frameworks. Writing inference engine
 s and DSL's has never been a problem for CL programmers and researchers. 
 It is therefore a well founded conclusion that CL is a "well mixed soluti
 on" for Bioinformatics and Systems Biology\, life\, universe and everythi
 ng else. It just needs to be put together.\n\nMarco Antoniotti is an Asso
 ciate Professor at the Dipartimento di Informatica Sistemistica e Comunic
 azione\, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca\, Italy. His interests 
 concentrate in the field of Computational and Systems Biology. He is the 
 author or co-author of several papers and software systems - SHIFT from U
 C Berkeley\, Jester from PARADES\, Simpathica and GOALIE from NYU - and c
 o-authored three patents in the field of Genomics Optical Mapping. He rec
 eived his PhD from New York University in 1995.
