- Description of the workshop
E-government is a highly important strategic direction to reduce administrative burden and make government more efficient and service-directed. Despite recent achievements in research and actual implementation of e-Government in practice, many more questions still remain on how to achieve full interoperability and dynamic reconfiguration of e-government services, with better accessibility, more transparency and manageability.
The Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) paradigm provides the necessary theoretical and technological support for the desired electronic government environment to become a reality. It perfectly satisfies the demand for a solution for a highly distributed heterogeneous environment with an enormous number of autonomous services and their providers together with users with their own goals and preferences. Therefore, the combination of the e-Government domain and SOA appears to be natural, as SOA provides an ideal platform to achieve the goal of a citizen-oriented and citizen-centric government organization.
This workshop will provide a forum to discuss how the SOA paradigm may facilitate further advances in e-Government research as well as best practice examples of already implemented and applied solutions in the context of e-Government. In this workshop we expect theoretical, technical and implementation-oriented contributions on all aspects of the application of SOA for e-Government issues and challenges. The workshop welcomes contributions on the following topics, though other related contributions are also welcome: Service-Oriented Architectuers for eGovernment; Quality of Service in eGovernment platforms; Methodology and tools for variability management in eGovernment; Software Engineering approaches for the domain of eGovernment; Software Patterns for the domain of eGovernment; Reference Architectures for SOA or SaS in in eGovernment; Domain and business models for eGovernment; Migration of legacy eGovernment systems to SOA; Assessments of eGovernment tools and solutions; Security, privacy and trust Interoperability in eGovernment Onotolgies for eGovernement e-service delivery - government to citizen Social, technical, and economical aspects of eGovernment eProcurement eParticipation and eCitizenship eDemocracy eVoting Acceptability issues in eGovernmnet; Case studies and best practices;
- Submission guidelines
Papers up to six pages (including figures, tables and references) can be submitted. Papers should follow the IEEE format, which is single-spaced, two columns, 10 pt font. Papers should include a title, the name and affiliation of each author, an abstract of up to 150 words and no more than eight keywords. Please submit papers, in PDF or PS format, by email to Alexander Lazovik (a.lazovik@rug.nl). All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed by a minimum of three program committee members. The accepted papers and the summary report produced by each group will be published in the conference proceedings (by the IEEE Computer Society Press). If you have further questions or remarks, please do not hesitate to contact the workshop organizers. http://www.computer.org/cspress/instruct.htm
