10th IFIP e-government
conference (EGOV) 2011
29 August - 1 September 2011; Delft,
The Netherlands
(co-located with
the third ePart conference)
CALL FOR PAPERS
The 10th annual
international IFIP e-government conference is the
European core conference in the study domain, which
presents the state of the art in e-government and
e-governance. Since its beginnings in 2001, the EGOV
conference has provided important guidance for research
and development in this fast-moving domain of study.
IFIP’s EGOV conference has grown to one of the top three
conferences in the domain besides the HICSS e-government
track and the Digital Government Society’s dg.o
conference in North America. In 2010, EGOV became a full
IFIP conference organised by the IFIP Working Group 8.5
on information systems in the public sector.
The IFIP
e-government conference brings together leading
researchers and professionals from across the globe and
from a number of disciplines. Over the years, the
interest in this domain of study has steadily increased.
The 2010 IFIP EGOV and ePart conferences have attracted
more than 150 participants from all continents including
developing countries. IFIP EGOV has accepted 36
contributions in completed research, 31 contributions in
ongoing research, 3 panels and 3 workshops. Also, the
second editor-in-chief roundtable with representatives
of five key journals in the field and a PhD colloquium
were held. For further details see the conference site
of IFIP EGOV 2010.
E-government research
has demonstrated its relevance to practice and
consequently has influenced and shaped government
strategies and implementations. Conversely, e-government
practice has inspired e-government research. A wide
range of topics has received scholarly attention. In
recent years, the assessment and evaluation of
e-government projects, the foundations of e-government
as a research discipline, integration and interoperation
in government, transformation, organizational change,
citizens at the center, adoption and diffusion, and the
role of information and communication technology for
development rank among leading topics on the research
agenda.
For the IFIP
e-government conference 2011 we seek contributions that
include but are not limited to:
- Foundations of
e-government and e-governance research
- Future
directions in research and practice of ICT in the
public sector
- Research
theories and frameworks for public sector
modernization with the support of ICT
- Research
methods, method integration and techniques
- Designing and
assessing systems for the public sector: innovative
cases and systems
- ICT usage,
acceptance and performance of technology-supported
public sector activities: methods and contemporary
case analyses
- Open government,
transparency, and collaboration
- Open innovation,
innovation management, transformation and change
management, and complexity management in shaping
public sector advancements
- Crowdsourcing in
government
- Evaluation and
benefits management
- Stakeholders
collaboration in government modernization:
Stakeholder-driven public sector reengineering
- Participative
governance and policy modeling
- Legal

- Cloud computing
and social networks in the public sector
- Information
Infrastructure, Information preservation, information
management, and information access
- Trust and
privacy in e-government
- Open source and
free software
- Interoperability,
architectures and standards in networked government
- Knowledge
management, information sharing, semantics, and
ontologies
- Emergency and
disaster response management
- Retaining public
sector experiences
- Education, human
resources, training courses, and curricula
The
IFIP e-government conference 2011 hosts four distinct
formats of contributions:
- Completed
research papers (max 12 pages, published in LCNS
Springer )
- Ongoing research
and innovative projects (max 8 pages, published in
Trauner or similar)
- Workshops and
panels on pertinent issues
- PhD colloquium
submission
These formats encourage scientific
rigor and discussions of state of the art in the study
domain, but also welcome innovative research approaches,
work in progress, and studies of practical e-government
or e-governance projects along with reports on system
implementations. Prior to the conference (Monday August
29), 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.
We seek innovative and
scholarly sound contributions. Accepted papers of
completed research will be published in Springer Lecture
Notes in Computer Science. Ongoing research and project
papers will be published in Trauner proceedings (or
similar). Read more about the submission guidelines and
review criteria on the conference website:
The IFIP
e-government conference will be co-located with ePart,
the third International Conference on electronic
participation (ePart), which will be dedicated to topics
on e-participation and e-democracy. ePart will take
place slightly overlapping with the IFIP e-government
conference at the same venue. Participants registering
for one conference can also attend the other conference.
