Workshops on Distributed Infrastructure for Security Monitoring and Intelligence Extraction

该项目将支持关于安全监控和情报提取分布式基础设施的两个讲习班的参与者费用。第一个是2010年1月9日至13日在印度班加罗尔的印度科学研究所校园举行的为期5天的研讨会，由来自美国和印度的受邀科学家参加。目标是建立美国和印度在尖端研究和技术开发以及知识转移方面的新合作，重点是实时安全监视和提取关键物理基础设施及其相关计算和通信组件的可操作情报。这项研究预计将给美国和印度带来直接的好处，并产生更好地管理自然灾害和恐怖主义事件造成的公共安全和保障的技术。这些研讨会还将有助于加强美国和印度在相关领域的现有伙伴关系，并促进新的伙伴关系。第二个为期两天的后续讲习班将于2010年春季在美国举行，地点可能在华盛顿特区。这些研讨会的最终结果将是一项大规模的研究计划，将向美国和印度双方的适当机构申请资助。

This project will support participant costs for two workshops on Distributed Infrastructure for Security Monitoring and Intelligence Extraction. The first is a five-day workshop held in India involving researchers invited from the United States and India held 9-13 January 2010 on the campus of Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore, India. The goal is to establish new collaborations between the United States and India in cutting-edge research and technology development and knowledge transfer focused on areas of real-time security surveillance and extraction of actionable intelligence for both critical physical infrastructure and their associated computing and communication components. The research is expected to be of direct benefit to both the United States and India and to result in techniques for better management of public safety and security resulting from natural disasters and terrorist events. The workshops will also help strengthen existing partnerships between the United States and India inrelated fields as well as promote new ones. A second, two day follow-up workshop will be held in Spring 2010 in the United States, probably in the Washington DC area. The net result of these workshops will be a large scale research proposal for which funding will be requested from appropriate agencies from both US and Indian sides.
