Book excerpt: Intelligence and Security Informatics (ISI) is concerned with the study of the dev- opment and use of advanced information technologies and systems for national, int- national, and societal security-related applications. The annual IEEE International Conference series on ISI was started in 2003 and the first four meetings were held in the United States. In 2006, the Workshop on ISI (http://isi. se. cuhk. edu. hk/2006/) was held in Singapore in conjunction with the Pacific Asia Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining, with over 100 contributors and participants from all over the world. PAISI 2007 (http://isi. se. cuhk. edu. hk/2007/) was then held in Chengdu, China and PAISI 2008 (http://isi. se. cuhk. edu. hk/2008/) was held in Taiwan. These ISI conferences have brought together academic researchers, law enforcement and intel- gence experts, information technology consultants and practitioners to discuss their research and practice related to various ISI topics including ISI data management, data and text mining for ISI applications, terrorism informatics, deception and intent detection, terrorist and criminal social network analysis, public health and bio-security, crime analysis, cyber-infrastructure protection, transportation infrastructure security, policy studies and evaluation, and information assurance, among others. We continued the stream of ISI conferences by organizing the 2009 Pacific Asia Workshop on ISI (PAISI 2009) in conjunction with the Pacific Asia Conference on Knowledge Disc- ery and Data Mining (PAKDD 2009).
Download or read book Information Reuse and Integration in Academia and Industry written by Tansel Özyer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-08 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present work covers the latest developments and discoveries related to information reuse and integration in academia and industrial settings. The need for dealing with the large volumes of data being produced and stored in the last decades and the numerous systems developed to deal with these is increasingly necessary. Not all these developments could have been achieved without the investing large amounts of resources. Over time, new data sources evolve and data integration continues to be an essential and vital requirement. Furthermore, systems and products need to be revised to adapt new technologies and needs. Instead of building these from scratch, researchers in the academia and industry have realized the benefits of reusing existing components that have been well tested. While this trend avoids reinventing the wheel, it comes at the cost of finding the optimum set of existing components to be utilized and how they should be integrated together and with the new non-existing components which are to be developed. These nontrivial tasks have led to challenging research problems in the academia and industry. These issues are addressed in this book, which is intended to be a unique resource for researchers, developers and practitioners.

Download or read book Strategic Management of Global Manufacturing Networks written by Thomas Friedli and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The preceding process of globalization and the continuously rising competitive pressure on manufacturing companies in more developed economies unveiled the limits of classical site-focused optimization approaches. The focus of network optimization shifts ever more towards an integrative view of manufacturing networks, striving for a harmonization of the strategy-, configuration- and coordination levels. This book presents such an integrative approach to the strategic management of manufacturing networks. Besides strategic network requirements, this book discusses the derivation of an optimal global footprint and the optimization of network coordination activities. Special attention is paid to the site roles concept, especially to the concept of 'lead factory'. A large number of up-to-date cases from the producing industry enrich the book and provide the reader with vivid examples for the application of the presented concepts. Hence, this book is a must-read for both practitioners and academic researchers.
