HICSS 2014 Minitrack on "E-Government Open
data and Cloud Services"
Big Island, Hawaii, January 6-9, 2014
(HICSS), a minitrack on Open data, Interoperability and Cloud services in the
Public Sector is organized. The 47th HICSS, one of the most prominent
Conferences on Information Sciences worldwide, will be held on January 6-9,
2014, in Big Island, Hawaii (http://www.hicss.hawaii.edu ).
Public organizations are releasing their data
to the public, developing, sharing and sourcing their services and taking
advantage of the cloud. Public systems are more and more connected with each
other and with systems of others resulting in a spaghetti of interconnected
systems. All these efforts require information sharing and interoperability to
ensure that systems work in concert. Moreover decisions concerning the
development, operation and maintenance of services and hosting of the services
in the cloud should be made. All these developments impacts the technical,
organizational, managerial and strategic level. Yet it is unclear what should
be done and what the impact is. This minitrack is aimed at discussing theories,
methodologies, experience reports, literature and case studies in the field of
open data, interoperability and cloud services.
Possible topics include, but are not limited
to:
·
System
