Produktbeschreibung

Intelligence and Security Informatics (ISI) has become an important research field after the tragic event of September 11, 2001. Researchers in computer and information science have a unique opportunity (and obligation) to contribute to international security via advanced IT research. A series of conferences on ISI has been organized in US since 2003, in Pacific Asia since 2006, and in Europe since 2008. More details about this series of conferences can be found at http://www.isiconference.org/. These activities have brought together researchers, practitioners, and policy-makers to support counterterrorism and homeland security mission. This book, INTELLIGENCE and SECURITY INFORMATICS: TECHNIQUES & APPLICATIONS, presents a collection of works discussing terrorism informatics, information sharing, data mining, intelligence and crime analysis, infrastructure protection, privacy protection, information surveillance, and emergency response. The authors come from nine different countries and contribute a total of twenty-two chapters of advanced and high-impact ISI research.

The audiences of this book include: (1) public and private sector practitioners in the national/international and homeland security area; (2) consultants and contractors engaging in on-going relationships with federal, state, local, and international agencies on projects related to national security; (3) graduate level students in computer science, information science, public policy, information security, criminology, and terrorism study; and (4) researchers engaging in security informatics, homeland security, information policy, knowledge management, public policy, and counterterrorism research.

He is the author of 15 books and more than 200 articles covering knowledge management, digital library, homeland security, Web computing, and biomedical informatics in leading information technology publications. He serves on ten editorial boards, including: Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, ACM Transactions on Information Systems, IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, International Journal of Digital Library, and Decision Support Systems. He has served as a Scientific Advisor/Counselor of the National Library of Medicine (USA), Academia Sinica (Taiwan), and National Library of China (China). Dr. Chen founded The University of Arizona Artificial Intelligence Lab in 1990. The group is distinguished for its applied and high-impact AI research. Since 1990, Dr. Chen has received more than $20M in research funding from various government agencies and major corporations. He has been a PI of the NSF Digital Library Initiative Program and the NIH NLM s Biomedical Informatics Program. His group has developed advanced medical digital library and data and text mining techniques for gene pathway and disease informatics analysis and visualization since 1995. Dr. Chen s nanotechnology patent analysis works, funded by NSF, have been published in the Journal of Nanoparticle Research. His research findings were used in the President s Council of Advisors in Science and Technology s report on "The National Nanotechnology Initiative at Five Years: Assessment and Recommendations of the National Nanotechnology Advisory Panel." Dr. Chen s work also has been recognized by major US corporations and been awarded numerous industry awards for his contribution to IT education and research, includin

g: ATT Foundation Award in Science and Engineering and SAP Award in Research/Applications. Dr. Chen has been heavily involved in fostering digital library, medical informatics, knowledge management, and intelligence informatics research and education in the US and internationally. He has been a PI for more than 20 NSF and NIH research grants since 1990. Dr. Chen is conference chair of ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL) 2004 and has served as the conference general chair or international program committee chair for the past six International Conferences of Asian Digital Libraries (ICADL), 1998-2005.
