As part of the UKVAC or United Kingdom Visual Analytics Consortium, Middlesex University is hosting VASS 2010, the Visual Analytics Summer School (camp) at their Hendon campus in London. This residential event is sponsored by the US Department of Homeland Security via the US National Visualization and Analytics Centre (NVAC) and is organised in collaboration with the UK Home Office and Ministry of Defence.

VASS 2010 follows in the tradition of the 2008 Summer Camp held at the US NVAC, National Visualisation and Analytics Centre, at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Richland, Washington. As part of a series of events in September this year to mark the foundation of the UKVAC, VASS 2010 will be hosted by Middlesex University, in London, UK.

Visual Analytics is the science of analytical reasoning supported by interactive visualisations. Delegates will learn about visual analytic problems, techniques and solutions from leading international experts in the field. Included in the syllabus are: analytical reasoning; the design of interactive visualisations; data representations and transformations; perspectives on software engineering and programming for rapid visualisation. The aim of the summer school is to provide a multidisciplinary grounding in this emerging and important area. Teaching will be by classroom delivery, discussion and hands-on experience with visual analytic tools.

Speakers and tutors include:
Prof. Ann Blandford, Director, UCL Interaction Center, UCL, UK.
Prof. Min Chen, Swansea University, UK.
Prof. David Ebert, Purdue University, and Director VACCINE, US.
Dr Joseph Kielman, Science Advisor, S&T Directorate, and Lead, Basic/Futures Research, CCI Division, DHS, US.
Dr Dario Leslie, Office for Security and Counter Terrorism, Home Office, UK.
Dr Richard May, Director, NVAC, US.
Dr Joe Parry, Research Lead, i2, Cambridge, UK.
Prof. John Stasko, Georgia Tech, US.
Dr Jim Thomas Founding Director, NVAC.
Attendance is open to participants from industry, government and post-graduate students with an interest in the area. Programming is not a requirement although a high level of IT literacy is essential.
Thanks to support from the DHS we are able to charge a nominal registration fee of £150 (standard fee) and £100 (student fee). We will also ask registrants to submit a short (500-750 word) outline of their interest in Visual Analytics, and a brief CV (format available at registration) for possible discussion at the event.

Delegates will receive university accommodation for a maximum of 10 nights (Sept. 15th- 24th), lunch and refreshments on teaching days (16th-17th, 20th-25th), and a hosted summer school dinner and social outing.

Note - spaces are limited to 30 applicants.

Registration opens 17 May 2010.
