*Call for Papers*

*The 2023 IEEE International Conference in Intelligence and Security
Informatics (ISI 2023)*

*October 2 – 3, 2023, Charlotte, North Carolina, USA*

*Conference Website: **IEEE ISI 2023 (ieee-isi.org <http://ieee-isi.org>)*

Intelligence and security informatics (ISI) is an interdisciplinary field
involving academic researchers in information technology, social and
behavioral sciences, computer science, law, and public policy, as well as
industry consultants, practitioners, security managers, and chief
information security officers who support physical and cyber security
missions at the individual, organizational, national, and international
levels. Over the past two decades, the IEEE ISI Conference has evolved from
its traditional orientation towards the intelligence and security domain to
a more integrated alignment of multiple domains, including technology,
humans, organizations, and security, aiming to advance our understanding of
the interrelationships between these different components, and by
integrating recent advances from different domains.

The ISI 2023 conference invites academic researchers in the field of ISI
and related areas, as well as IT, security, and analytics
professionals, intelligence
experts, and industry consultants and practitioners in the field, to submit
papers and workshop proposals. Research should be relevant to informatics,
organizations, public policy, or human behavior in applications of security
or protection of local/national/international security in the physical
world, cyber-physical systems, and/or cyberspace.

Submission Guidelines

All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another
journal or conference. Each manuscript must clearly articulate their data
(e.g., key metadata, statistical properties, etc.), analytical procedures
(e.g., representations, algorithm details, etc.), and evaluation set up and
results (e.g., performance metrics, statistical tests, case studies, etc.).
Making data, code, and processes publicly available to facilitate
scientific reproducibility is not required, but is strongly encouraged.

We accept three types of paper submissions on proposed tracks and related
topics: *long paper (maximum of 6 pages), short paper (maximum of 3 pages),
and poster (1 page)*. The submission format is PDF that follows IEEE
publication format (see the template at IEEE - Manuscript Templates for
Conference Proceedings
<https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html>). Papers will
be submitted through the EasyChair submission and review system. Each
accepted paper must be presented at the conference. At least one author of
each accepted paper must register the conference as an IEEE member before
the early registration deadline. The accepted papers from ISI 2023 will be
archived by IEEE Xplore.

Journal Special Issue

A number of papers selected from IEEE ISI 2023 will be invited for
extension and submission to a special issue on Cybersecurity of ACM
Transactions on Management Information Systems.
