Call for Papers AMCIS Mini-track: Worldwide Advances in eGovernment Interoperability

Description and Topics Moving in the direction of Electronic and Transformational Government roadmaps, as adopted by Governments all around the world, interoperability is posing as one of the great challenges for administrations, industry and research. With the basic standardisation now in place, as most Governments have issued eGovernment Standardisation Frameworks, attention is gradually transferred to the implementation and deployment of infrastructures to support one-stop delivery of public electronic services, through the interoperable operation of a vast number of systems, organisational units and public officials. Within this context, the minitrack is targeting novel approaches, methods, practices and tools for achieving interoperability in the provision of Digital Public Services, resulting into a significant increase of service quality for citizens and businesses. Specific importance is to be placed in multi-disciplinary approaches, combining organizational, legal, semantic, technical and participative elements of interoperability, providing relative support by advanced information systems. The minitrack will also provide a stand for real-life application examples, showing adoption by public administration, citizens and enterprises at international, national or local level. Recommended topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

- Interoperability State of the Art, Methods and Literature Reviews - Social and Business implications of Interoperability in public administration - Interoperability Assessment in Administrations and Enterprises - Interoperability Standardization for governments - Process management: One-Stop Shop approaches and methods - Ontology-based interoperability approaches - Data interoperability standards for governments (UN/CEFACT/CCTS) - SOA frameworks and architectures for interoperable governmental services - Digital service registries and interoperability infrastructures - Workflow execution and rule based systems in e-Government - Future Internet systems for e-Government Interoperability - Interoperability service utilities and infrastructures - Interoperable electronic ID�s and authentication methods - Agent-based approaches for interoperable service provision - Policies and Decision making for Interoperability in e-Government - BPR/BPM for achieving interoperability in administrations - Private � public partnerships for interoperable services provision - Case studies in Administrations worldwide

Since interoperability is a multi-disciplinary domain, new research challenges are also bound to touch Semantics, Web Service Technologies, Business Process Management and Re-engineering, Service Oriented Architectures and Model Driven approaches.

Target Audience The audience of the minitrack includes public administration officials and industry executives, engaged both in organisational design and ICT deployment, researchers and practitioners in the Electronic Government, Electronic Business and Interoperability domains, university students and professors of Computer and Management sciences, ICT industry staff engaged in eGovernment projects and solutions, policy makers and decision drivers at local, national or international levels.
