The workshop covers all aspects of advanced simulation of electronic bandstructure
and transport in solid-state, molecular, and biological nanostructures. Computation of
nano-materials, optoelectronic and organic devices and sensors are also included. The
scientific program consists of invited lectures, contributed talks, and poster
presentations. The workshop is intended to be an international forum for discussions on
the current trends and future directions of computational electronics. The emphasis of
the contributions is on interdisciplinary aspects of computational electronics, touching
physics, engineering, applied mathematics, as well as chemistry and biology. Active
participation of graduate students, including student presentations, is strongly
encouraged.

Abstracts and Proceedings

Contributors must upload a two page abstract in PDF format. Style files for LaTeX and
MS Word are provided on the conference homepage. Accepted abstracts will be publis-
hed in a Book of Abstracts. The authors are encouraged to submit an extended version
of their contribution for the conference proceedings which will be published in the
Journal of Computational Electronics. Both, the two page abstract and the extended
abstract, are subject to peer review.
