Electronic Government Track --> please see http://faculty.washington.edu/jscholl/hicss46/
Researchers interested in ICT in government, or "Electronic Government" researchers, study the use of information and technology in the context of public policy making (electronic governance, open government, transparency, and digital divide/s), government operations (transformation, management, organization, infrastructure, interoperability, insider threats, and security), citizen engagement (e-participation, transparency, collaboration, and digital democracy), e-Government-related education, and government services (including using social media and social networking). The HICSS e-Government track has been a hotbed for groundbreaking studies and new ideas in this particular research domain. Many studies first presented here were developed further and then turned into publications at top journals. Ten minitracks cover the full spectrum of research avenues of electronic government including minitracks dedicated to emerging topics, open government, and social media and social networking, or, most recently, insider threats. The HICSS e-Government Track has assumed an excellent reputation among e-Government scholars. Several times it has been ranked the academically most rigorous research conference on e-Government in the world. The E-Government Track is in the top 2 of HICSS tracks with the lowest acceptance rate and the highest average per-session attendance. Minitracks are dedicated to the following topical areas:
* Cloud Infrastructures and Interoperability * E-Government Education * Emerging Topics * Policy, e-Governance, Ethics, and Law * Infrastructure Security * Insider Threats (Modeling, Detection, and Mitigation) * Open Government and Participation * Services and Information * Social Media and Social Networking * Transformational Government
