2nd Call For Papers EGOV09 Linz/Austria

Call for Papers and Workshop Proposals

Eighth international EGOV conference 2009, Linz (Austria),
August 30 - September 3, 2009

The international EGOV conference annually presents the state of
e-Government and e-Governance research and practice. Thereby, the conference
provides important guidance in this fast-moving domain of study.

The EGOV conference brings together leading researchers and professionals
from all over the globe and from many disciplines. Over the years, the
interest has increased tremendously. The 2008 conference attracted some 130
participants from more than 30 countries from all over the world including
developing countries, with 32 contributions in outstanding research, 25
contributions in ongoing research, 10 projects contributions and 5
workshops. Also, 10 PhD papers were accepted and presented at the doctoral
colloquium preceding the conference. Every year the EGOV Conference proves
its capacity to serve as a platform for academics and professionals and as
an important ground for networking in the community.

Organizational and user-related issues long discussed among researchers have
finally gained influence on practice. Conversely, e-Government practice has
influenced and inspired e-Government research. A wide range of topics has
received scholarly attention. In recent years, the assessment of
e-Government efforts, the prospects of e-Government as a research
discipline, and the role of information and communication technology for
development rank among the top topics on the research agenda. These themes
will also be well-received contributions at EGOV 2009. The eighth EGOV
conference includes, but is not limited to the following topics around
e-Government and e-Governance and other fields of ICT application in the
public sector:

- Research theories and frameworks for public sector modernization with the
support of ICT

- Research methods, method integration and techniques

- Analyzing and assessing contemporary research in e-Government and
e-Governance

- Designing systems for the public sector: innovative cases and systems

- Studying ICT usage, acceptance and performance of technology-supported
public sector activities: methods and contemporary case analyses

- Future directions in research and practice of ICT in the public sector

- Innovation management, change management and complexity management in
shaping public sector advancements

- Transformation, customer-driven public sector reengineering and change

The EGOV Conference Series hosts four distinct formats of contributions:
Scientific papers (distinguished between completed research and ongoing
research); project presentations, and workshops. These formats encourage
scientific rigor and discussions of the state of the art in the study
domain, but also welcome innovative research in progress, and studies of
practical e-Government or e-Governance projects, as well as system
implementation. We seek innovative and rigorous contributions. Accepted
papers of high-quality, completed research will be published in Springer Os
Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS.) Ongoing research and project
papers will be published in the Trauner (Linz) proceedings. Read more in the
submission guidelines and review criteria

The conference will again host a PhD student colloquium providing doctoral
students with an international forum for presenting their work, networking
opportunities and cross-disciplinary inspiration. Read more about the PhD
