*** Apologies for Cross-Posting *** CALL FOR PAPERS Mini-Track on Framing Public Sector Big Data E-Government Track - AMCIS Americas Conference on Information Systems http://amcis2015.aisnet.org/2-uncategorised/40-e-government-sigegov-track DEADLINE: February 25th 2015 CONFERENCE: Puerto Rico, August 13th-15th 2015. FRAMING PUBLIC SECTOR BIG DATA The mainstreaming of e-government has created and facilitated the availability of an abundance of open government data. Third parties and related applications have enthusiastically embraced public sector data sources. Information systems designed to support internal processes now have a central role in commercial applications including big data. Unlike the private sector, the public sector has little control over secondary use of its material yet must withstand a higher level of scrutiny. Conversely, governments obtain and analyze commercial data sources as well. What challenges are facing public sector information systems in the era of big data? This mini track invites work that frames government big data issues from technical, social, or organizational perspectives. In addition to empirical studies, theoretical and conceptual papers will be considered. We encourage submissions that may include but are not limited to issues of policy, governance, diffusion, adoption, implementation, identification, privacy, cloud computing, or social media. Relevant research might be applied to areas that generate significant government data, such as statistics, social services, healthcare, and education. The objective of the mini-track is to encourage research that can be useful to those employing and managing data in the public sector. Anne L. Washington Laurie A. Schintler Connie L.
