Situation Management is new discipline which is driven by the intersecting
advances of sensor networks, real-time event management, and knowledge-based
situation awareness. The goal of Situation Management is to form
information-rich real-time pictures of operational theatres such as needed
in homeland security, disaster recovery, cyber security, and network centric
warfare. These pictures are developed as a set of situations that are built
from large-scale real-time data sources, rich models, and intelligent
analysis.
This conference will bring together researchers to discuss the latest
results in these important issues. Submissions are sought in related areas
including the following:
* large-scale sensor-based data collection architectures
* measurement and sensing grids
* sensor network configuration management and self-healing sensor
networks
* intelligent, autonomic and self-organizing sensing and sensor
networks
* event representation
* distributed event-driven systems
* temporal and spatial event correlation algorithms
* situation monitoring and awareness
* formal methods of situation modeling and reasoning
* reactive, deliberative and reflective situation management
* situation awareness in incomplete, inexact and probabilistic
environments
* agent-based situation management
* threat situation prediction, vulnerability analysis and impact
assessment
* situation modeling languages, tools and platforms
* situation management knowledge representation and ontologies
* integration with Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA) and enterprise
event processors
* visualization GIS, and localization technologies (including GPS and
RFID) in situation management
* peer-to-peer architectures for situation awareness
* situation management in tactical, ad hoc, sensor and mobile networks
* applications in cyber security, disaster response, crises
management, home land security, intelligent transportation, industry and
health care
* deployment experience and testbeds.
All papers should be formatted and submitted according to the SPIE Defense,
Security, and Sensing 2009 guidelines and will be reviewed by the technical
program committee.
