Paper Abstract:
|
Since e-Government has an increasing influence on how government business processes evolve and change, this paper applies the method of systematic review for identifying, extracting and analyzing the principal proposals for e-Government ontologies. The most mature proposals have been selected and compared by using a formal framework, extracting the key requirements that an integrated and unified e-Government ontology should have, and providing the first steps towards its definition. Ten e-Government ontology models were identified from a systematic review of literature. A ten point comparison framework was developed to consider the underlying concepts as well as application of the ontology models. The comparison results were then synthesised into six gaps to inform future e-Government ontology research. This work is a rigorous and systematic attempt to identify and synthesise the research in public administration ontology. |
