(co-located with the 3rd ePart conference)
CALL FOR PAPERS -- please apologize for multiple postings
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 compliance, legal shaping and legal
impact of innovative government services provision
* Mobile services and methods in government
* 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.
