It aims at a citizen-centred vision of a government that provides effective governance, increased transparency, better management, effective processes, and efficient services through the use of the Internet and information and communication technologies (ICTs). In this context, world governments are mobilizing large amounts of resources to develop, implement, and promote the use of e-government. However, developing e-government projects are huge undertakings that require significant investment of time, money, people, and technology resources. There is, therefore, a need for a careful assessment of the e-readiness of the state, as well as a careful formulation of a long term strategy and a clear commitment and will on the part of the political leaders. The governments need to have ICT infrastructure, processes, and policies as well as training provisions for the masses in place, and citizens must be willing to adopt the innovative technologies and approaches. The aim of the proposed book is to present frameworks and methodologies, as well as case studies to discuss and understand the approaches being deployed for successful implementation of e-government projects. The secondary objective is to present information for other economies that are in the process of developing e-government strategies. Recommended Topics: include, but are not limited to, the following: E-government strategies, methodologies and frameworks E-government stages, models and approaches E-democracy, e-voting, e-participation and e-legislation Government-to-government and government-to-business interactions Government-to-citizen and business-to-business interactions Provision of e-services and e-training of the masses Pre-requisites for successful implementation ICT infrastructure and training provision for citizens E-government project initiation, planning and implementation E-government project evaluation metrics Success factors and best practices Limitations, barriers, challenges and opportunities E-readiness factors and pre-conditions Strategies for successful adoption by the masses Resource, expertise, ethical and legal issues Diffusion of Innovation and other relevant theories Managing innovation, change and integration Experience and comparison reports Knowledge management in e-government project Case studies Other topics relevant to successful implementation and adoption of e-government. Submission Procedure Researchers, practitioners and decision makers are invited to submit 1 page chapter proposals, by the date mentioned above, clearly explaining the objective and structure of the proposed chapters. Authors of accepted proposals will be notified within one week and given instructions and guidelines for full chapter preparation. Full chapters should be about 10,000 words or around 20 pages in length. Completed chapters will be reviewed following a double-blind peer review process to ensure quality and high information content. Proposals and full chapters, as WORD files, should be sent to Dr Zaigham Mahmood: +ADw-A HREF+AD0AIg-http://committees.comsoc.org/tccc/+ACIAPg-dr.z.mahm... at hotmail.co.uk+ADw-/A+AD4- Important dates Chapter proposals due date: 10 Sept 2012 (extended) Full chapters due date: 25 Oct 2012 Chapter reviews feedback by: 15 Nov 2012 Revised chapters due date: 15 Dec 2012 Manuscript delivery to publishers: 15 Feb 2013 For Enquiries: please contact the editor, Dr Zaigham Mahmood: +ADw-A HREF+AD0AIg-http://committees.comsoc.org/tccc/+ACIAPg-dr.z.mahm... at hotmail.co.uk+ADw-/A+AD4- .------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 14.08 .----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr Zaigham Mahmood Reader in Applied Computing Assistant Head of DISYS (Distributed Systems) Research Group University of Derby, UK .------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 'Cloud Computing for Enterprise Architectures' by Z Mahmood +ACY-amp+ADs- R Hill (Eds) now available at: +ADw-A HREF+AD0AIg-http://www.springer.com/computer/communication+networks/book/97-1-4471-2235-7+ACIAPg-http://www.springer.com/computer/communication+networks/book/97-1-4471-2235-7+ADw-/A+AD4- .------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 'Cloud Computing: Concepts and Technology' by T Erl, Z Mahmood +ACY-amp+ADs- R Puttini will be launched at SOA/Cloud Symposium, Imperial College, London, 24-25 Sept 2012 .------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ +AF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXw- IEEE Communications Society Tech.
