CALL FOR PAPERS
AMCIS 2015 EGOV Mini-Track: Framing public sector big data

http://amcis2015.aisnet.org/

DEADLINE: February 25th 2015
Americas Conference on Information Systems
Puerto Rico, August 13th-15th 2015.



The mainstreaming of e-government has created and facilitated the
availability of an abundance of open government data. Third parties and
related applications have enthusiastically embraced public sector data
sources. Information systems designed to support internal processes now
have a central role in commercial applications including big data.

Unlike the private sector, the public sector has little control over
secondary use of its material yet must withstand a higher level of
scrutiny. Conversely, governments obtain and analyze commercial data
sources as well.

What challenges are facing public sector information systems in the era of
big data?

This mini track invites work that frames government big data issues from
technical, social, or organizational perspectives. In addition to empirical
studies, theoretical and conceptual papers will be considered.

We encourage submissions that may include but are not limited to issues of
policy, governance, diffusion, adoption, implementation, identification,
privacy, cloud computing, or social media. Relevant research might be
applied to areas that generate significant government data, such as
statistics, social services, healthcare, and education.

The objective of the mini-track is to encourage research that can be useful
to those employing and managing data in the public sector.
