Run Date: 01/20/2005
(U) Prepare to participate in the third annual AP Analysis Conference, 16-19 May 2005 at NSA.
This year's overall theme "Analysis: No Boundaries" furthers the work set out in the first two
conferences to chart the course of the future, and share information and collaborate.

intelligence business and private industry.
(U) Call for Briefers and Abstracts
(U//FOUO) Conference planners in NSA's Advanced Analysis Lab are accepting abstracts from
potential presenters now through 1 March 2005. Presentations will be scheduled into one of the
following three tracks:

with IAD partners. (What we're doing with new sets of people.)
2. (U//FOUO) Looking Beyond the Horizon: Methods for recognizing emerging threats and
warning customers of their existence-- identifying denial and deception, balancing agility
with rigor through effective use of metadata analysis, structured thinking, red teaming,
etc. (How we're doing it better.)
3. (U//FOUO) Ensuring Smooth Navigation: Formalizing Analysis doctrine for filling the new
roles and connecting the right dots-how we optimize joint training/learning, Analytic wargaming, quality control and trust building, creating and sharing models, scenarios,
hypotheses etc. (How we ensure everyone does it better.)
