[AISWorld] HICSS 2013 - CFP E-Government Cloud Services and Interoperability

[Yannis Charalabidis]

Call For Papers

E-Government Cloud Services and Interoperability at HICSS46

 

Within the 46th Hawaiian International Conference on System Sciences
(HICSS), we organise a minitrack on Cloud Services and Interoperability in
the Public Sector. The 46th HICSS, one of the most prominent Conferences on
Information Sciences worldwide, will be held on January 7-10, 2013, in Maui,
Hawaii (http://www.hicss.hawaii.edu).

 

BACKGROUND 

Public organizations are joining-up and collaborating with each other and
with the public. All these efforts require vertical and horizontal
interoperability and need to be supported by the next generation of digital
government infrastructures. By overcoming the fragmentation, public
organizations can exchange information and benefit from each other
facilities. The creation of an interoperable government faces challenges at
the technical, organizational, managerial and strategic level.

 

Interoperability is the ability of diverse systems and organizations to work
together and covers a mixture of technical and organizational aspects.
Infrastructures are generic facilities facilitating organizational
collaborating, service provisioning and business processes. Cloud services
are a new way of providing and using ICT based on virtualized resources
meeting security, privacy and scalability requirements. Clouds provide the
opportunity to share resources and provide shared services over the
Internet, so that administrations, enterprises and citizens can benefit from
open data and shared services.

This minitrack is aimed at discussing theories, methodologies, experience
reports, literature and case studies in the field of cloud services and
interoperability. We solicit for papers covering technical and
organizational aspects and combining theory and practice. Papers in the
field of government cloud, integration, agile development, information
exchange, enterprise architecture, cloud computing, ICT-(shared) services
and Software as a Service (SaaS) are strongly encouraged. We promote a
diversity of research methods to study the challenges of this multifaceted
discipline focusing on various aspects of interoperability and also
theoretical papers and papers from developing countries.
