Patternhunting "Inappropriate Behavior"

"National ICT Australia (NICTA) scientists are developing advanced surveillance technologies including software algorithms to track "inappropriate behavior" in public places.The project—which aims to prevent, detect and predict acts of terrorism—is partly funded by a 634,000 Australian dollars (US$485,000) grant from the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet.Dubbed the Smart Applications for Emergencies (SAFE) project, the team has already developed a proposed specification for a Tsunami-type warning language used to characterize and disseminate threat levels." /CIO Tech Informer/
