The tasks of collecting, analyzing, and disseminating intelligence grow
more complex with every year, the emergence of new technologies and new
types of threats. New approaches are required to enable greater
flexibility, precision, timeliness and automation of analysis in
response to rapidly evolving threats.  Ontology-based technology as
applied in areas such as bioinformatics has demonstrated the
possibility of gains along all of these dimensions. The time is ripe to
extend these gains to other spheres.

This conference will bring together experts on ontology-based
technology with particular experience in the problems facing the
intelligence community. It will feature invited talks from prominent
ontologists and intelligence community leaders, as well as submitted
papers focusing especially on the creation of public-domain ontology
resources to support the work of intelligence analysts.
