International Conference on Intelligence and Security Informatics (ISI 2005)

在过去三年中，在国家/国际和国土安全研究方面取得了重大兴趣和进展，特别是在开发方法和工具方面，这些方法和工具使分析员和研究人员能够在恐怖主义研究、情报分析和与安全有关的公共政策领域利用计算机科学和信息技术提高知识水平。就“医学信息学”和“生物信息学”科学而言，仍然迫切需要继续发展“情报和安全信息学”科学--通过综合技术、组织和政策方法，研究开发和利用先进的信息技术、计算机科学和用于国家/国际和国土安全相关应用的算法。该奖项将支持第三届国际情报与安全信息学会议，以便为不同群体之间的讨论提供一个智力论坛：信息技术、计算机科学、公共政策和社会科学的学术研究人员；地方、州和联邦执法和情报专家；以及信息技术行业的顾问和从业者。著名的信息学、计算机科学和政策研究人员将与执法和安全界的进步领导人聚集在一起，进行富有成效的对话，并探索合作的途径；预计将有150-175人。会议将征集与情报和安全研究相关的高质量研究论文，这些论文将由研究人员和从业人员进行同行审查，以便提交和发表。此次会议与一年一度的数字政府计划的受赠者研讨会同时举行，将进一步扩大参与这一新兴科学学科的可能性。资金将由联邦情报机构、国防部提供。国土安全部和国家安全局的两个部门。

The past three years have seen significant interest and progress made in national/international and homeland security research, particularly in the development of methodologies and tools to enable analysts and researchers to advance the state of knowledge by using computer science and information technology in the areas of terrorism research, intelligence analysis, and security-related public policy. Much as for the sciences of "medical informatics" and "bioinformatics," there remains a pressing need to continue to develop the science of "intelligence and security informatics" -- the study of the development and use of advancedinformation technologies, computer science, and algorithms for national/international and homeland security related applications, through an integrated technological, organizational, and policy-based approach.This award will support the Third International Conference on Intelligence and Security Informatics in order to provide an intellectual forum for discussion among disparate communities: academic researchers in information technologies, computer science, public policy, and the social sciences; local, state, and federal law enforcement and intelligence experts; and information technology industry consultants and practitioners. Noted informatics, computer science, and policy researchers will be brought together with progressive leaders in law enforcement and security communities to engage in productive dialogue and explore avenues ofcollaboration;150-175 individuals are expected. The meeting will solicit high-quality research papers of relevance to intelligence and security research, which will be peer-reviewed by both researchers and practitioners for presentation as well as publication. The co-location of this conference with the annual Digital Government program's grantee workshop will further broaden the possibilities for participation in this emerging scientific discipline. Funding will be provided by the Federal intelligence agencies, the Dept. of Homeland SEcurity, and two divisions in NSF.
