STIDS is a premier opportunity for collaboration and cross-fertilization between researchers and practitioners of semantic-based technology with particular experience in the  problems facing the Intelligence, Defense, and Security communities. Each year a conference theme is selected for special attention, especially in selection of Keynote Speakers. STIDS 2015 will offer presentations of original, peer-reviewed research, as well as invited talks from prominent semantic technology researchers and recognized leaders from the target application domains. This year’s theme is Semantics in Cyber-Physical Systems.

The main Conference will take place on November 19–20, preceeded by a Tutorials day on Wednesday, November 18.  The Conference and Tutorials venue is Dewberry Hall, in the Johnson Center, at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia. A classified session will be held on November 17, at a venue to be announced, for those with TS/SCI clearances.
