A very new field has been born at the crossroads of molecular biology, linguistics, computer science, and mathematics. The conventional wisdom was that biology influenced mathematics and computer science. Researchers and scientists are now examining a new approach: transferring methods and tools from computer science to biology. The reverse of a
long-standing trend is evident in the contributions to this
volume. The authors address the structural (syntactical) view of the domain. In this respect, mathematical linguistics and computer science can offer a variety of adequate tools for modeling complex macromolecules, and for analyzing and simulating biological issues. This collection is valuable for students and researchers across a range of disciplines, including molecular biology, linguistics, computer science and applied mathematics.
