IST Event 2006 :: Workshops and Networking Sessions

Future eGovernment Research

Wednesday 22nd November 2006, IST 2006 Conference, Room No 204.

This session aims to exchange and discuss ideas for future eGovernment research within FP7.

The session is motivated by the escalating economic and societal demands in the Public Sector, which increase the expectations from related research. It adopts a multi-disciplinary perspective and aims to bring together people from the ICT, economic and the social sciences world, as well as combine academic and practitioner insights, especially regarding engineering and managing innovative services.

Participants will explore the core themes of eGovernment research:

• Engineering of innovative personal services for all, according to individual life events and situation, that will be trusted and easy accessible.

• Semantic Web and information management technologies for eGovernment systems interoperability and interaction with and between citizens, business and public administrations;

• Advanced technologies that will enable efficient and effective eGovernment (e.g. smart tags, sensors networks, advanced GPS, knowledge grid)

Participants will capitalize on both the results and the community already established in previous events such as:

• the “Semantic Web meets eGovernment” AAAI symposium held in Stanford, USA (March 2006)

• the "Semantic Web for eGovernment" workshop within the 3rd Annual European Semantic Web Conference, Budva, Serbia and Montenegro (June 2006)

• the annual EGOV conferences in autumn (this year in Krakow, Poland)

• as well as the semantic wiki of the relevant community.
