*********************************************************************************

Intelligence and Security Informatics (ISI) is a cross-disciplinary field defined as the development of advanced information technologies, systems, algorithms, and databases for international, national and homeland security related applications, through an integrated technological, organizational, and policy-based approach. Recent developments of big data and business analytics in business and public organizations have aroused attention to the various issues on ISI. For example, the rapid rise of social media has impacted the Middle-Eastern regions' political stability, supported social movements in the U.S. immigration reform and border security, and triggered stock market fluctuation in a recent hoax about White House explosions. New techniques and applications of ISI are desperately needed to overcome challenges in growing volumes and varieties of social media and organizational data. Meanwhile, industries and governments demand high-caliber human talents to support their ISI initiatives. New pedagogies, teaching materials, and curriculums at the university level are needed. In this mini-track, we solicit high-quality, original research papers that address a variety of ISI issues using design science, behavioral, or organizational approaches.
