Workshop Details
Context and relevance:
Combating terrorism has occupied centre-stage across
governments, security agencies, policy makers, academia, industry and society
at large for obvious and understandable reasons. In the academic and industry
circles, past decade has witnessed significant interest in security-related
research in a wide range of applications spanning across national and
international security, economic and societal security, and including personal
and community security. Academic disciplines especially centered on Information
Technologies such as information and computer sciences, information
systems, human-computer studies, technology adoption, and policy studies have
made rapid progress in developing and evaluating customized frameworks,
methodologies, techniques, and systems to meet specific information processing
and knowledge management challenges of “security” and
“Intelligence”. An emerging field of cross-disciplinary
study, called the Intelligence and Security Informatics (ISI), encompassing
these efforts through an integrated technological, organizational, and
policy-based approach has evolved. This multidiscipline is shaped by research
and applications in fields from data/text/web mining to knowledge management to
cognitive science to social psychology. The emergent field also has spawned
professional societies and conferences, to build a professional community -
This emergent field has good prospects for and demands
best of the young minds to expand and strengthen the domain and help contribute
to the end goal of Secure and Smart society. The Workshop would help achieve
this goal.
The Summer School on ISI 2010
will provide a learning platform for students and professionals, who focus on
ISI research. We believe that this summer school will enrich the understanding
of the emerging domain of ISI.
The Workshop will have
three Tutorials:
