✦ Synopsis

In seeking to achieve these clearly important goals, the DFRWS scientific committee undertook a broad-based approach, involving the dynamic collaboration of the scientific and the practitioner communities. The resolution was made to support teaching of the material at universities and elsewhere with the contributions of analysts from the civil and military spheres. And here technological research aimed at the development of tools for analysts is very important. The organizers thus decided to ask the collaboration of the Rome (NY) Air Force Research Laboratory and other independent research centers, whose representatives presented their respective work.

One important issue, which emerged during the conference is the lack of direct correspondence between directions of research, the work of the police force, and the technology available. And to this we must add the lack of a transnational lexicon to enable and enhance communication within the field. All of this is desirable, but fundamentally regards the political aspects, while barely grazing the "true" technical issues.
