Transforming Government (tGov) Workshop 2010

The aim of this workshop is to provide a common platform for academics and practitioners to discuss and present original research highlighting issues related with technical, organisational, managerial and socioeconomic aspects of both (e) and (t)-government implementation and adoption. This workshop calls for theoretical analysis, empirical research, or case studies that will provide us with a deeper insight into issues surrounding the use of ICT to achieve better government.

Topics are expected to be drawn from this non-executive list:

• The development, implementation, control and maintenance of transformational government projects.
• Challenges, issues and complexities involving the implementation of transformational government.
• The significance of t-government benefits offered to both government and citizens.
• A global perspective and assessment of t-government implementation efforts.
• IT-governance, integrated service delivery and reengineering of the public sector.
• Different process, information systems and technology integration approaches used in t-government and e-government projects.
• Evaluation of case studies involving transformational change in the public sector.
• Technology alignments in t-government and e-government projects.
• Innovative applications and good practices in e-government and t-government.
• Overview studies; development within countries, policies, infrastructure facilities and comparative studies (comparing countries) of t-government and e-government.
• Tools, methods, frameworks and guidelines for t-government.
• Technologies, design approaches and management strategies that facilitate t-government.
• Role of high-speed internet in encouraging adoption and diffusion of e-government services.
• Role of socio-economic determinants in encouraging adoption and diffusion of e-government services.
• And other relevant topics and issues that may influence, relate to or impact on transformational government.
