New Web Opportunities to increase Digital Citizenship

EATIS 2008 aims, but are not limited to, the production of scientific work around e|m-Inclusion, e|m-Government, e|m-Health, e|m-Learning, e|m-Culture and e|m-Entertainment (local, regional, national and international), Web Semantic, and Web 2.0 communities, contents and technologies.

Submitted papers hopefully should deal with issues about transversal services and applications such as Convergence Digital, Electronic, Mobile and Ubiquitous Applications. They should be oriented towards community and cultural enhancement, to build knowledge and skills for work, to improve work quality, citizenship participation as well as consumer choice.

In particular, EATIS 2008 encourages the use of Information System (IS) and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), allowing citizens a better participation at various levels of government and public services, as well as the ethics component in the use of services and technologies related to IS and ICT.

Tertiary Sector and Open Source

Since the success of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and Social Development Networks participation in former events, EATIS 2008 also strongly recommend submissions of papers related to the economy’s tertiary sector. Thus, it is also welcome works submissions about revolutionary (or evolutionary) research initiatives (like OLPC - One Laptop Per Child), open source initiatives and communities, and Informatics (or Social) Entrepreneurship (innovation, marketing, business plans and new trends).
