Call for Papers: Dual IFIP EGOV and ePart 2015 – www.egov-conference.org
Dates of conference: 30 August - 3 September 2015
Location: Thessaloniki, Greece

The annual international IFIP EGOV conference is the top-2 ranked core 
conference in the domain of ICT in the public sector and the public 
sphere. Each year, scholars from all over the globe present the most 
recent advancements and findings of research and innovations in 
e-Government, e-Governance and related fields of study.

The annual international ePart conference is the top-ranked conference 
in the domain of electronic participation and the 5th-ranked overall 
conference dedicated to information technologies in the context of 
public administration and the public sphere.

The dual conference is organized by the IFIP Working Group 8.5 on 
information systems in the public sector. Since the beginnings of EGOV 
in 2001 and the inauguration of ePart in 2009, the two conferences have 
provided important guidance for research and development in this 
fast-moving domain of study. The dual IFIP EGOV—ePart conference brings 
together leading researchers and professionals from across the globe and 
from a number of disciplines. The previous IFIP EGOV and IFIP ePart 
conferences have attracted around 150 participants on average per year 
from all continents including developing countries

The dual 14th IFIP Electronic Government and 7th e-Participation 
Conference (IFIP EGOV and IFIP ePart) 2015 will be organised along five 
tracks:

- The General E-Government Track
- The General eParticipation Track
- The Open Government & Open and Big Data Track
- The Policy Modelling and Policy Informatics Track
- The Smart Governance, Smart Government, & Smart Cities Track

Although the five tracks overlap in certain areas, they cover and 
emphasise distinct areas of research and appeal to specific and 
important sub-communities within the overall EGOV—ePart scholarly 
community. Therefore the tracks have their separate and detailed call 
for papers.

FORMATS

Across its tracks, the dual IFIP EGOV/ePart 2015 conference hosts 
distinct formats of contributions:
- Completed research papers (max. 12 pages, published in the IFIP ePart 
proceedings of Springer LNCS)
- Ongoing research and innovative projects (max. 8 pages, published in 
alternate proceedings by a IOS Press)

Beyond the tracks, the dual IFIP EGOV/ePart 2015 conference also hosts
- Posters (max. 2 pages), to be exposed along the welcome reception on 
Tuesday evening
- Workshops and panels on pertinent issues, short abstracts (2 pages), and
- PhD colloquium submissions (max. 8 pages),
all to be included in the alternate proceedings published by IOS Press

These formats encourage both scientific rigor and discussions of state 
of the art as well as innovative research approaches, work in progress, 
and studies of practical e-government or e-governance projects along 
with papers on system implementations.

Prior to the conference (August 30 - 31), a PhD student colloquium will 
be held providing doctoral students with an international forum guided 
by senior scholars for presenting their work, networking opportunities 
and cross-disciplinary inspiration. Read more about the submission 
guidelines and review criteria on the conference website:
