Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP Government e-Strategic Planning and Management
by Gustaf Neumann 07 Sep '12

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP Government e-Strategic Planning and Management Date: Thu, 6 Sep 2012 11:29:41 -0500 From: Chris Reddick <Chris.Reddick(a)utsa.edu> To: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> CALL FOR CHAPTER PROPOSALS Proposal Submission: 15th October 2012 Full Chapter Submission: 31th January 2013 Government e-Strategic Planning and Management: Practices, patterns and roadmaps A Book Edited by Dr. Leonidas G. Anthopoulos1, and Dr. Christopher G. Reddick2 , 1TEI of Larissa Greece, Greece, 2University of Texas at San Antonio, USA To be published by Springer Science and Business Media 1. Introduction Various Government e-Strategies have been developed since the late 1990s in an attempt to describe the vision for administrative and for societal change, the objectives and the priorities with regard to the development of the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) at national and at supranational levels. Terms such as the European “Information Society”, the U.S. “Information Highways” and the Korean and Chinese “Informatization” try to describe social transformation that occurs due to the ICT, and to determine means with which Governments will capitalize the ICT to deal with national or regional challenges, to improve social life and to support economic growth. Moreover, e-Strategies define guidelines that control public investments on the ICT. In these strategic documents Governments identify the strategic development supervisors, the objectives, the Critical Success Factors (CSFs), the evaluation frameworks, and the estima ted outc omes. Different countries recognize different challenges, prioritize different objectives and determine alternative paths to achieve in their e-strategic targets. Additionally, e-Strategic implementation progress has been used by various organizations to measure e-Government maturity (i.e., the United Nations’ e-Government Readiness index, and the Accenture’s maturity model), and to associate ICT spending with national economic growth (i.e., in terms of market’s liberation and corruption). Accenture for instance, classifies countries as innovative leaders (U.S.A., Singapore, Canada); visionary followers (U.K., Netherlands, Australia etc.); steady achievers (France, Germany etc.); and Platform Builders (Japan, Brazil etc.) with regard to their e-Strategic progress. E-Strategic planning has been a dynamic process since all e-Strategies have closed even more than a single life-cycle. These strategic updates are usually not justified efficiently by Governments. E-strategic planning, management and review are complex processes that have to consider and account on various determinants, which belong to either the external or the internal environment of the application area. As a result, it is extremely difficult to an external observer who has not participated in these processes and who does not live in the particular geographic region to understand these parameters and to recognize how they impact the strategic life cycle and how the strategic objectives are being updated. 2. Objectives This book focuses on the analysis of various e-strategies and of their updates with means of strategic management. It aims to illustrate the alternative e-strategic approaches that are followed around the world -with the capitalization of recent trends in strategic management theory- and addresses the gaps that appear between e-strategic updates. Invited authors have to use strategic management theory and tools in order to analyze and describe the e-strategic evolution in their cases. More often than not, authors can evaluate e-strategic management approaches and present multi-criteria decision making systems for e-strategic transformation. Concluding, the aim of this book is to invite and depict experiences from national and supranational cases, which come from different geographic areas regarding e-strategic planning and management. More specifically: - It aims to demonstrate e-strategic initiation and development across different countries and continents, and the association between policies and ICT; - it seeks to perform a systematic analysis of various representative cases, in order to capture the realized e-Strategic transformation; - it focuses on the extraction of the critical success factors that guide e-strategic progress and the criteria set by decision makers for e-strategic reviews; - it aims to illustrate the reasons that drive e-strategic updates; - it aims to summarize on patters for e-strategic evolution, according to the presented cases. 3. Intended Audience and Potential Uses 1. Government CIOs, Strategic Leaders, Decision Makers, IT/IS Managers, Analysts and Designers seeking to draft e-strategic change plans. 2. Consultants and practitioners desirous of new solutions and technologies to define visions and missions for their Government clients. 3. Business management, public policy and IS management educators interested in imparting knowledge about the vital issue of e-strategic management. 4. Academic and consulting researchers looking to uncover and characterize new research problems and programs. 5. E‐Government professionals involved with technology strategic planning, technology procurement, management of technology projects, consulting and advising on technology issues and management. 5. Recommended Topics and Themes In the context of e-strategic management the proposed book intends to include, but is not limited to, chapters in the following broad topics and themes: 1. Case studies and user experiences regarding e-strategic development at national and supranational level. 2. Government 2.0 and e-strategic development in countries and territories with different levels of e‐government capability and maturity. 3. The context of strategic management (theories, frameworks, methodologies, tools, recent and future trends and other supporting aspects of strategic management) with regard to the ICT, Strategic (systems) thinking in the public sector. 4. Transparent, open government, connected government and recent trends regarding e-strategic formulation. 5. Portfolio management, public sector governance, government performance, investment management. 6.

Please submit your papers to: sigegov12(a)gmail.com You are invited to submit a paper for presentation and discussion at the 2012 pre-ICIS Special Interest Group (SIG) eGovernment workshop, to be held on 15 December 2012, in Orlando, Florida. The general objective of SIG eGovernment is to promote quality and relevance in eGovernment research. As previous SIG eGovernment pre-ICIS workshops, this workshop is dedicated to open discussions about the most important issues today, theoretical streams and different possible ways forward. The focus of the workshop is informed discussion. Workshop Objective This year, the workshop aims to focus on Open Data and Open Innovation in eGovernment. eGovernment has for many years been seen as a government activity, but today more actors are moving in. Governments increasingly provide open data for citizens to make use of and for companies and NGOs to develop services on. Moreover, there is an increasing number of interdepartmental and cross public-private sector initiatives. This workshop discusses the new perspective of eGovernment, including open service models and the changing roles for governments as well as citizens, businesses and organizations. Questions to be examined include (but are not limited to): - Open data in the eGovernment; - Open innovation in eGovernment; - eGovernment and eParticipation; - Citizen-centric eGovernment; - User-driven e-government design, management, and implementation; - Transparency and openness in eGovernment services; - Social media and eGovernment services; - What is the relationship of eGovernment with new areas such as e-participation and old ones such as e-learning, e-commerce, and e-health; - What is the relationship of eGovernment with the wider IS research area; - Engaging stakeholders e-government research; - Challenges of open-source and open-standard solutions in eGovernment; Submission We welcome full research papers, research in progress, and discussion papers. Full papers should be max 5000 words. Discussion papers may be short, just a few pages, but should clearly and distinctly address one or more issues pertinent to eGovernment research including research methods and quality as well as focus of studies. Papers should be designed to support in-depth discussions of one of these issues during the workshop. The workshop papers will be clustered and each session will discuss a small set of papers focusing on similar or related issues. Each submission will be reviewed by the workshop co-chairs and at least one external reviewer. The submission will not be published as proceedings, and the authors will retain full authorship rights. File Format: Word Please submit your papers to: sigegov12(a)gmail.com Details of the programme will be made available at http://sigegov.org Important Dates • Submissions due: October 7, 2012 • Acceptance of Notification: October 21, 2012.

The papers in this workshop will also further knowledge of what we know about how ICT enables the global economy by enabling local needs to be met. Development is the improvement in the lives of people and this is often made possible by ICTs. A continuing problem in advancing the program of ICT for social development is the shortage of expertise in many developing countries. While many gains have been made, the shortage of skilled ICT professionals, low levels of ICT literacy and the 'brain drain' of ICT specialists to developed regions of the world could undermine progress. In addition, access to ICT resources and the ability to use these resources have the potential to better the lives of people. Innovations in ICTs have enabled access to services such as mPESA that provide access to financial services through cellphones, telecenters that enable innovative uses of existing technologies to help communities access needed resources. At the same time, people who are unable to have access to the ICTs and the innovations associated with them become marginalized. In order to address these issues, human capital and capacity building are seen to be important concepts in understanding development. Human capital is seen to be a key driver of development in that human capital is the knowledge, skills and capacity that enable people to achieve their goals and take the opportunities presented to them. The ability to access and use ICT resources in innovative ways, requires skill and literacy. In their editorial in the Information Technology for Development Journal, Bada and Madon (2010) state that changes in ICT and their applications have placed new demands on the stock of human capital required to function effectively in the changing global technological and business environment. The collective stock of human capital also effects the capacity of a region to grow from ICT investments and infrastructure. Building capacity for development involves harnessing human capital to enable the innovative uses of ICT to bring about economic, human and/or social development. We invite papers, panel session proposals, and field studies that can inform theory and provide guidelines to field workers in developing economies. Both research and practice papers are encouraged. Graduate student papers will be given special consideration. Areas of interest for the 5^th Annual GlobDev Workshop include but are not limited to: 1.The role of government policy in fostering ICT human capital and capacity building 2.New frameworks and models for fostering ICT human capital and capacity building 3.Critical and theoretical perspectives on the digital divide and social inclusion 4.Challenges of ICT human capital and capacity building in remote regions 5.Educational systems; content provision and delivery; developing ICT skills 6.Mobile technologies as infrastructure for ICT human capital and capacity building 7.Frugal Innovation and innovative ways in which technologies are applied in developing regions. Any combination of the above or aspects of human capital and capacity building for development will be considered. WORKSHOP PROCEEDINGS These will be published in the AIS eLibrary.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [WI] Future Business Software 2012 Conference in St. Leon-Rot, on September 25th, 2012 Date: Mon, 3 Sep 2012 20:21:21 +0200 From: Wypior, Anna <anna.wypior(a)sap.com> To: wi(a)lists.uni-karlsruhe.de <wi(a)lists.uni-karlsruhe.de> Guten Tag, Evt. könnt die „Future Business Software“ Konferenz für Mitglieder des GI Fachbereichs Wirtschaftsinformatik interessant sein. Herzliche Grüße, Anna Wypior SAP Research ________________________________________ FUTURE BUSINESS SOFTWARE 2012 CONFERENCE ST. LEON-ROT, ON SEPTEMBER 25TH, 2012 ________________________________________ What will business software look like in the future? And how will it be developed? The “Future Business Software 2012“ conference in St.Leon-Rot, on September 25th, 2012 will provide software experts with insights into current trends in business software development and into the business software of tomorrow. The conference has two focus areas which are addressed in two tracks: • Emergent Software as a new paradigm which addresses the highly complex requirements of tomorrow’s business software by combining business functions of many different and distributed software solutions dynamically and flexibly without major effort being required. • Agile software development processes address the risk-laden implementation of diffuse and fast changing software requirements by short, iterative development cycles, new design and testing practices, and an intensive culture of communication. Keynotes speakers from SAP AG and Software AG will highlight current trends towards the next generation of enterprise software. Visit the program for more information about speakers and the content of their presentations: www.future-business-software.org The conference is organized by the German Software-Cluster and addresses software developers in companies and researchers in this domains. We look forward seeing you at the Future Business Software Conference 2012! ________________________________________ About Software-Cluster The Objectives: Digital enterprises work in highly flexible, Internet-based business networks, and design their dynamic business models and processes to ensure that all data regarding processes, operating funds and resources is available at all times in precise real-time and dimensional resolution for planning, controlling and optimization. The Software-Cluster's goal is to enable the transformation of businesses into fully digital enterprises that use ICT as the key driver for product and process innovation. Studies predict 430,000 new jobs in Germany's software industry by the year 2030. Some of the Software-Cluster's other objectives include educating 5,000 skilled professionals in five years, launching 30 companies in the cluster's core area of expertise, and persuading leading foreign companies to establish a presence in the cluster region. According to recent numbers, at least €300 million will be invested in these efforts. The means: The Software-Cluster will work on five projects to develop concepts, technologies and business processes for emergent software—an innovative leap in the area of enterprise software, which is a key contributor to the German national economy. Emergent software creates a dynamic and flexible combination of numerous components from various providers to meet the highly complex needs of digital enterprises. Successfully realizing the group's goals will require a joint effort from the science and business sectors, and cross-organizational cooperation within the Software-Cluster. The region: The Software-Cluster spans centers in Darmstadt, Kaiserslautern, Karlsruhe, Saarbrücken and Walldorf. The partners: Strategy Board: DFKI - German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence GmbH, Fraunhofer Institute for Experimental Software Engineering, IMC information multimedia communication AG, intelligent views GmbH, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), proAlpha Software AG, SAP AG, Seeburger AG, Software AG, Technische Universität Darmstadt / CASED Website: www.software-cluster.org -- Mailing-Liste: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de Administrator: wi-admin(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de Konfiguration: https://www.lists.uni-karlsruhe.de/sympa/info/wi
