Business models of e-government: Research on dynamic e-government based on Web services

Abstract

Government transcends all sectors in a society. It provides not only the legal, political and economic infrastructure to support other sectors, but also exerts significant influence on the social factors that contribute to their development. With its maturity of technologies and management, e-government will eventually enter into the time of 'one-stop' services. Among others, the technology of Web services is the major contributor to this achievement. Web services provides a new way of standard-based software technology, letting programmers combine existing computer system in new ways over the Internet within one business or across many, and would thereby bring about profound and far-reaching impacts on e-government. This paper introduced the business modes of egovemment, architecture of dynamic e-government and its key technologies. Finally future prospect of dynamic e-government was also briefly discussed. © 2007 by International Federation for Information Processing.
