The 16th annual IEEE Symposium on Technologies for Homeland Security (HST ’17), will be held 25-26 April 2017, in the Greater Boston, Massachusetts area. This symposium brings together innovators from leading academic, industry, business, Homeland Security Centers of Excellence, and government programs to provide a forum to discuss ideas, concepts, and experimental results.

We are currently seeking technical paper, poster and tutorial session submissions in each of the areas noted above. Papers examining the feasibility of transition to practice will also be considered. Submissions should focus on technologies with applications available for implementation within about five years. All areas will cover the following common topics:
• Strategy and threat characterization, CONOPs, risk analysis
• Modeling, simulation, experimentation, and exercises & training
• Testbeds, standards, performance and evaluations.
