Clik here to view.Indeed you did. But I was compelled to venture into its bottomless intricacy, as if in the thrall of a gaes -- or possibly vice versa -- in my role as quondam Editor of Bernouli's Encyclopedia of Imaginary Diseases. For before we perturb the pristine pages of the Encyclopedia with a new entry for Gatti & Montanari's newly-invented "Burning semen disease", it befits us (in the cause of due diligence) to read the relevant publications... and to ask ourselves, "Who in the name of Piffelheim edited the many volumes of Conference Proceedings in which this garbage was printed"?
The answer turns out to be one Ashok Vaseashta, Director of the International Clean Water Institute (Dott.ssa Gatti sometimes claims an affiliation there) and the Institute of Advanced Sciences Convergence.
Is that a thing? The name conjures images of drum-circles and dream-catchers and sweatlodge spirit-animal bafflegab.
I am not making this up, athough I would have said "post-structuralist deconstructionist bafflegab" myself, but tomayto, tomahto. Both cod Institutes fall under the rubric of NUARI --
Norwich University Applied Research Institutes (NUARI) was federally chartered under legislation sponsored by Sen. Patrick Leahy in 2002 and is funded in part through the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Defense. NUARI has a national center to address cyber incident management challenges through research, training programs and technology development and has been a global leader for more than a decade in developing cyber war gaming, distributed learning technology, distributed simulation technology, critical infrastructure exercises, and cyber security curriculum.
Which is to say, it all dates back to the Great 9/11-Aftermath Lollyscramble, when the piñata was whacked and the fundgates gaped open and anyone with any kind of connectedness was latching onto a moneyteat like drunken sailors battening onto the beer-nipples in the bar scene in Chapter 1 of "V". Norwich 'University' being a private military academy with a long tradition of service to the culture of boot-licking, it did not miss out on its share of the spoils. Which is why it is now bolstering National Security with such fine products as Cyber Exercise Preparedness Games, a Comic-book Guide to Understanding the FEMA-Incident command system... and (of course) the IASC.
Ashok Vaseashta was in the right place with the right nebulous vapourware, all inter-disciplinary nanotech counter-terrorism e-tongues... guaranteeing him a stream of research contracts in exchange for random strings of Cyber Terrorism Worship Words, for as long as he is willing to keep concatenating them. So 15 years later he is a tenured grifter on the Homeland Security gravy-wagon, or band-train as the case may be. The question of why so many metaphors for indolent opportunism are drawn from the sphere of rail transport is an interesting one but we shall not let ourselves be distracted. There he collaborates with Gatti and Montanari in promoting the concept of Nanoparticle Environmental Bio-Terrorism Life-Cycle Risk Analysis. Culminating in Gatti et al. (2015):
The question of why so many English words like "charlatan", "imbroglio", "mountebank", "fiasco" are drawn from Italian is an interesting one but we shall not let ourselves be distracted...
Oh look, my due Diligence has finally arrived.

We should not forget the subspecies of scientific symposia and workshops that occur under the auspices of NATO, as a moveable feast around the fringes of Europe from Kiev to Sozopol -- not with any immediate expectation of productive intellectual exchange, more to knit the scientific establishments of those countries more closely into Western Europe. All with themes like Promotion of Peace and Science for Security.
Chisinau, Moldava hosted “Technological Innovations in Detection and Sensing of CBRN Agents and Ecological Terrorism” (2010), which begat an unimaginatively-titled volume of Proceedings (ed. Vaseashta) -- notable for the discovery of Nano-Eco-Terrorism.
Yerevan, Armenia was treated to “Technological Innovations in CBRNE Sensing and Detection for Safety, Security, and Sustainability” (2012), which begat the volume "Advanced Sensors for Safety and Security" (ed. Vaseashta) -- notable for the discovery of another new disease.
ANYWAY... just as Hell contains circles within circles, so there are levels of "Scoundrelly illiterate low-life spammers operating from Hyderabad", and many are even scuzzier than OMICS. Such as the pathetic wannabee cockwombles who call themselves 'Scientific Federation'. Who send us mail:

"Who," we ask, in a totally non-rhetorical-questioning way, "who could be so desperate or shameless as to lend their names in exchange for an Organisationl role in this mendacious money-grubbing burlesque?"
Who indeed?

Vasuashta is not one to turn down a gig, and the skeezy lowlife grifters at OMICS [celebrated organisers of academic-tourism scamferences and part-time parasitical publishers] have him on speed-dial for any time they need a Plenary Speaker to set the tone at one of their Nanotech grifts (e.g. 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2016, 2017). He is also available for weddings and children's parties.
