cover a wide range from technologies and infrastructures (energy grids,
networks) to human aspects such as poverty and illiteracy. The Conference aims
to create a platform for exchanging experience and possible solutions to
address such problems.
3. ICEG 2007: The 3rd International
Conference on e-Government
Deadline for abstract submission:
The International Conference on
e-Government (ICEG 2007) invites researchers, practitioners and academics to
present their research findings, work in progress and conceptual advances in
any branch of e-Government. The meeting brings together varied groups of people
with different perspectives together into one location, for the purposes of
helping practitioners find ways to put research into practice, and for
researchers to gain an understanding of additional real-world problems. To
achieve this goal, we are inviting researchers and practitioners from around
the world to present their research findings and new ideas, and practitioners
to demonstrate actual products.
