Practical Studies in E-Government
Information and communication technology (ICT) is permeating all aspects of service management; in the public sector, ICT is improving the capacity of government agencies to provide a wide array of innovative services that benefit citizens. E-Government is emerging as a multidisciplinary field of research based initially on empirical insights from practice. Efforts to theoretically anchor the field have opened perspectives from multiple research domains, as demonstrated in Practical Studies in E-Government. In this volume, the editors and contributors consider the evolution of the e-government field from both practical and research perspectives. Featuring in-depth case studies of initiatives in eight countries, the book deals with such technology-oriented issues as interoperability, prototyping, data quality, and advanced interfaces, and management-oriented issues as e-procurement, e-identification, election results verification, and information privacy. The book features best practices, tools for measuring and improving performance, and analytical methods for researchers.
Linked Data for Libraries, Archives and Museums
This highly practical handbook teaches you how to unlock the value of your existing metadata through cleaning, reconciliation, enrichment and linking and how to streamline the process of new metadata creation. Libraries, archives and museums are facing up to the challenge of providing access to fast growing collections whilst managing cuts to budgets. Key to this is the creation, linking and publishing of good quality metadata as Linked Data that will allow their collections to be discovered, accessed and disseminated in a sustainable manner. This highly practical handbook teaches you how to unlock the value of your existing metadata through cleaning, reconciliation, enrichment and linking a...
Metadata and Semantics Research
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th Metadata and Semantics Research Conference, MTSR 2014, held in Karlsruhe, Germany, in November 2014. The 23 full papers and 9 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 57 submissions. The papers are organized in several sessions and tracks. They cover the following topics: metadata and linked data: tools and models; (meta) data quality assessment and curation; semantic interoperability, ontology-based data access and representation; big data and digital libraries in health, science and technology; metadata and semantics for open repositories, research information systems and data infrastructure; metadata and semantics for cultural collections and applications; semantics for agriculture, food and environment.
Disability, Human Rights, and Information Technology
Disability, Human Rights, and Information Technology addresses the global issue of equal access to information and communications technology (ICT) by persons with disabilities. The right to access the same digital content at the same time and at the same cost as people without disabilities is implicit in several human rights instruments and is featured prominently in Articles 9 and 21 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The right to access ICT, moreover, invokes complementary civil and human rights issues: freedom of expression; freedom to information; political participation; civic engagement; inclusive education; the right to access the highest level of scientific...

E-mail Address Reliability
Avec la dematerialisation de l'information, dans le cadre de l'e-government, la qualite des adresses e-mail devient strategique. En effet, une bonne gestion de celles-ci peut, dans le cadre de l'e-government, contribuer a l'amelioration des services rendus et a la reduction des couts. C'est le cas lorsque les adresses e-mail sont utilisees pour l'envoi de notifications, dans le cadre des recommandes electroniques. Si les adresses sont incorrectes, les notifications des envois recommandes doivent s'effectuer par voie postale. A ces elements s'ajoutent les gains indirects associes: respect de la legislation, service rendu au citoyen et credibilite... Dans de nombreux pays, le recours a l'adresse e-mail se generalise au sein de l'egovernment. En 2012, le ROI sur 15 ans d'une telle approche est estime en Norvege a environ 250 millions d'euros. Les adresses e-mail se caracterisent toutefois par un cumul d'incertitudes: volatilite des usages, dynamique des noms de domaines, syntaxes non standards...
Histoire et informatique III
L'Association française pour l'histoire et l'informatique s'est fixée pour objectif de faciliter et de répandre parmi les historiens français l'utilisation de l'informatique et des diverses méthodes auxquelles elle donne accès. Dans ce domaine en constant bouleversement, la formule des colloques annuels permet de coller au plus près à l'actualité. Le IIIe colloque (après les deux premiers tenus respectivement à Rennes et à Nice) a choisi comme sujet principal le CD Rom, un nouveau venu qui n'est pas encore bien connu. Plusieurs de ces CD Rom sont présentés ici par ceux qui les ont conçus ou qui sont en train de les réaliser ; des créateurs mais aussi des utilisateurs confrontent leurs expériences. Comme il est désormais de tradition dans les colloques de l'Association, des travaux variés sont également présentés, certains hautement sophistiqués, d'autres au contraire présentant les stades initiaux de projets en cours de développement. Le panorama est ainsi à la fois varié et stimulant, et permet de faire le point sur les tendances actuelles de l'utilisation de l'informatique dans la discipline historique.
Data Mining and Reverse Engineering
Searching for Semantics: Data Mining, Reverse Engineering Stefano Spaccapietra Fred M aryanski Swiss Federal Institute of Technology University of Connecticut Lausanne, Switzerland Storrs, CT, USA REVIEW AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS In the last few years, database semantics research has turned sharply from a highly theoretical domain to one with more focus on practical aspects. The DS- 7 Working Conference held in October 1997 in Leysin, Switzerland, demon strated the more pragmatic orientation of the current generation of leading researchers. The papers presented at the meeting emphasized the two major areas: the discovery of semantics and semantic data modeling. The work in the latter category in...
Protest in the Vietnam War Era
This book assesses the emergence and transformation of global protest movements during the Vietnam War era. It explores the relationship between protest focused on the war and other emancipatory and revolutionary struggles, moving beyond existing scholarship to examine the myriad interlinked protest issues and mobilisations around the globe during the Indochina Wars. Bringing together scholars working from a range of geographical, historiographical and methodological perspectives, the volume offers a new framework for understanding the history of wartime protest. The chapters are organised around the social movements from the three main geopolitical regions of the world during the 1960s and early 1970s: the core capitalist countries of the so-called first world, the socialist bloc and the Global South. The final section of the book then focuses on international organisations that explicitly sought to bridge and unite solidarity and protest around the world. In an era of persistent military conflict, the book provides timely contributions to the question of what war does to protest movements and what protest movements do to war.
