E-Government Applications for the Information Society


Athanasios Drigas and Lefteris Koukianakis

The incorporation of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in activities and services such as education, culture and medicine constitutes a contemporary reality and governmental activities and services could not be an exception. Apart from expanded citizen services, e-government also offers a complete reshuffle of public organizations and their services through the efficient use of Internet services. This article presents an e-government platform which supports easy public access to governmental information, e-transactions between citizens and public organizations through the acceptance of e-documents submissions (e-applications and e-petitions) and their management through the e-protocol and finally, electronic delivery of a requested document. In addition, a model Greek e-government web portal is presented, which supports the Government to Citizen (G2C) model, which focuses on governmental information dissemination, which includes among others information about ministries, social services, and city news and information.
