The international conference EGOVIS represents a continuous sequel of the 8th International Conference EGOV in conjunction with DEXA, which focuses on information systems aspects of e-government. Information systems are a core enabler  for electronic government/governance with all its dimensions: e-administration, e-democracy, e-participation and e-voting.

 

EGOVIS papers should be submitted by researchers and practitioners describing innovative solutions, from an IT standpoint. The conference delivers a  platform  for a  broad discussion, from stakeholders dealing with information systems aspects of electronic government. - Hence it will offer the opportunity to extensive discussions on problems, requirements, and implemented solutions in the field.

For paper registration and electronic submission see http://confdriver.ifs.tuwien.ac.at/ starting January 2010.

Submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition.

Duplicate submissions are not allowed. Authors are expected to agree to the following terms: "I understand that the paper being submitted must not overlap substantially with any other paper that I am a co-author of and that is currently submitted elsewhere. Furthermore, previously published papers with any overlap are cited prominently in this submission."

Duplicate submissions will be rejected. Questions about this policy or how it applies to your work should be directed to the PC-chairs.

ACCEPTED PAPERS:

All accepted conference papers will be published in "Lecture Notes in Computer Science" (LNCS) by Springer Verlag. Accepted papers will be of two sizes: regular (15-page papers) and short (up to 8 pages). The former will tend to be descriptions of complete technical work, while the latter will tend to be descriptions of interesting, innovative ideas, which nevertheless require more work to mature. Authors of accepted papers must sign a Springer copyright release form.
