Franceschetti (U. Federico II, Italy) and Grossi (chief executive officer, SELEX Sistemi Integrati, a Finmeccanica company) present nine papers exploring what they see as key technological facets of homeland security practice: data acquisition and processing; storage, handling, and mining of sensed data; and design, model, scaling, and simulation of the integrated system designed to handle crisis occurrences. Following an introductory essay, chapters specifically address embedded wireless sensor networks; visual detection and classification of humans, their pose, and their motion; cyber security basic defenses and attack trends; mining databases and data streams; private information retrieval: single-database techniques and applications; tapping vehicle sensors for homeland security; modeling and analysis of wireless networked systems; and large systems modeling and simulation.
