Workshop Description:
Recent years have painfully revealed that disaster preparedness as well as 
disaster management are not always up to par to the challenges posed by various 
disasters, for both natural as well as man-made disasters. Disasters occur when 
hazards and their corresponding risks can no longer be properly contained, 
leading to serious detrimental consequences in terms of loss of life, financial 
repercussions or devastation to infrastructure and the environment. Globally, 
disasters have increased and are also affecting or threatening regions where in 
the past certain hazards were not so prominent. The COVID-19 pandemic surely 
has been - unfortunately - a hard test by reality for many aspects of disaster 
preparedness as well as operational disaster management policies, which still 
impacts our lives today and so will for some time in the future. To elaborate 
further using the example of the COVID-19 pandemic in hindsight from the 
perspective of today, the global spread and the resulting different 
implications during the COVID-19 pandemic highlights the importance to consider 
the dynamic evolvement of a disaster, which is exactly what the DoD-series has 
been focused on in the past and also will be focused on in its edition in 2024. 
DOD 2024 will broaden its scope and put forward the specialized theme of hybrid 
threats, thereby paying particular attention to emerging threats due to the 
ever growing integration and coupling between the cyber- and the physical 
domain. These emerging threats reach farther than cyber-physical systems, which 
have been the prime examples for novel attacks and consequences, which can both 
arise from the cyber as well as the physical domain. The impact of hybrid 
threats on our modern societies is profound and only increases the challenges 
for disaster management organizations and first responders.

We call for (extended) abstracts and/or papers dealing with all aspects related 
to the dynamics of disasters, and - in particular - encourage submissions 
dealing with hybrid threats. We would also like to highlight that we encourage 
submissions addressing challenges relating to the interdisciplinary character 
of disaster response and disaster management.

We plan to organize a call for extended versions of papers presented at DOD2024 
to be included in dedicated post-proceedings of DOD 2024 published by Springer, 
similar to previous editions of the DOD-series:
