The series Advanced Sciences and Technologies for Security Applications comprises interdisciplinary research covering the theory, foundations and domain-specific topics pertaining to security. Publications within the series are peer-reviewed monographs and edited works in the areas of: –– biological and chemical threat recognition and detection (e.g., biosensors, aerosols, forensics) –– crisis and disaster management –– terrorism –– cyber security and secure information systems (e.g., encryption, optical and photonic systems) –– traditional and non-traditional security –– energy, food and resource security –– economic security and securitization (including associated infrastructures) –– transnational crime –– human security and health security –– social, political and psychological aspects of security –– recognition and identification (e.g., optical imaging, biometrics, authentication and verification) –– smart surveillance systems –– applications of theoretical frameworks and methodologies (e.g., grounded theory, complexity, network sciences, modelling and simulation) Together, the high-quality contributions to this series provide a cross-disciplinary overview of forefront research endeavours aiming to make the world a safer place. The editors encourage prospective authors to correspond with them in advance of submitting a manuscript. Submission of manuscripts should be made to the Editorin-Chief or one of the Editors.
