Introduction

ntelligence and Security Informatics (ISI)is an interdisciplinary research field involving academic researchers in information technologies, computer science, public policy, bioinformatics, medical informatics, and social and behavior studies; local, state, and federal law enforcement and intelligence experts; and information technology industry consultants and practitioners. ISI supports counterterrorism and homeland security’s missions of anticipation, prevention, preparedness and response to security events, in physical, cyber, enterprise, and societal spaces. The 2016 conference will be held in Tucson, Arizona.  This year,  special workshops will provide participants with even more opportunities for information exchange, networking, and cross-domain problem-solving.  We invite academic researchers in the field of Intelligence and Security Informatics and related areas, as well as law enforcement and intelligence experts, and industry  consultants and practitioners in the field, to submit papers and workshop proposals.
