E-government policy initiatives for implementing citizen-centric integrated interoperable (CII) e-government services have gained international validity by governments worldwide. Despite extensive deliberations in e-government literature, however, successfully implementing strategic, institutional, and technological changes required by citizen-centric (vis-à-vis government-centric) e-government remains an unresolved theoretical and pragmatic conundrum. CII e-government systems are characterized by greater diversity in stakeholders, processes, technologies, applications, and big data, requiring greater cross-agency collaboration and process integration/standardization. Drawing from e-government interoperability and governance literatures, the authors examined the governance role in facilitating CII e-government implementation. The authors performed website and policy analyses of a successful implementation of Saudi Ministry portal, which exemplifies CII e-services. Results showed that government's earlier disconnected websites had not facilitated cross-agency information sharing required for citizen-centric e-government development. However, the authors found evidence that both e-government interoperability policy framework and collaborative governance had contributed to overcoming the implementation challenges and delivering CII e-government services to its diverse stakeholders.

The public sector accounts for a greater proportion of United Kingdom’s information technology (IT) spending, but cutting edge success stories in government IT are suddenly reported in popular press. As a result of the electronic delivery of government services (i.e. the National Health Service, Defence and Criminal Justice systems) becomes more commonplace, the public sector is becoming increasingly dependent on technology. This chapter reports on a three years research, which looks at the application of Web Services into United Kingdom healthcare as a fulfilment of numerous semi- and unsuccessful IT projects, that fell-short of delivering any tangible benefits. The author looks at the National Health Service’s current IS strategy—fully dependent on Web services application—with the criteria of successful implementation, return on investment, increased productivity, innovation and user benefits.

Business leaders around the world are using emerging technologies to capitalize on data, to create business value and to compete effectively in a digitally driven world. They rely on data analytics to accelerate time to insight and to gain a better understanding of their customers’ needs and wants. However, big data and data analytics solutions in higher education are new topics. There has been limited progress in accumulating the extremely rich data that flow through higher education systems for the purpose of acquiring usable information for students, instructors, administrators and the public. The key objective of this article is to propose a conceptual model for the successful implementation of analytics in higher education. The article also examines some of the potential benefits of big data and analytics as applied to the world of higher education and explores implementation challenges that can be expected. Furthermore, the study reviews key attributes of successful analytics platforms and illustrates some of the routes that might be taken to implement these technologies in education. Finally, it highlights the successful implementation of analytics solutions in several universities.

Traditional Approaches

E-governance is a paradigm shift over the traditional approaches in Public Administration which means rendering of government services and information to the public by using electronic means. In the past decades, service quality and responsiveness of the government towards the citizens were least important but with the approach of E-Government the government activities are now well dealt. This paper withdraws experiences from various studies from different countries and projects facing similar challenges which need to be consigned for the successful implementation of e-governance projects. Developing countries like India face poverty and illiteracy as a major obstacle in any form of development which makes it difficult for its government to provide e-services to its people conveniently and fast. It also suggests few suggestions to cope up with the challenges faced while implementing e-projects in India.

In recent years, the successful implementation of human genome project has made people realize that genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors should be combined together to study cancer due to the complexity and various forms of the disease. The increasing availability and growth rate of ‘big data’ derived from various omics, opens a new window for study and therapy of cancer. In this paper, we will introduce the application of machine learning methods in handling cancer big data including the use of artificial neural networks, support vector machines, ensemble learning and naïve Bayes classifiers.

While mobile phones are making significant inroads in many developing countries, little is known about the institutional drivers, policy barriers and industry challenges that affect their use for business growth of micro- enterprises. The authors address this gap. After conducting semi-structured interviews of 74 women-owned micro entrepreneurs and ten key informants from the government and industry in Fiji, the authors found that appropriate policy framework, supporting infrastructure and appropriate ecosystem are required for rapid uptake of mobile value added services by women-owned micro entrepreneurs. They contribute by proposing a revised technology adoption framework as well as the four shackles theory of women micro entrepreneurs' empowerment and emancipation. The authors also highlight the policy initiatives necessary to accelerate the growth of women-owned micro enterprises by mobile value added services which could also guide other developing and emerging economies.

The paper will study on the reality of the policies for development for technology and science information system in the world, the necessary discussion before the development of S&T. The author had in-depth assessment of the macroeconomic policy-oriented goals for the development of S&T information in the maritime sector and the development of Vietnamese science and technology information sources. A number of typical policies have been analyzed in the direction of practical application in the situation that Vietnam has been actively integrating with the world. Orientations for development of science and technology, maritime training and coaching to 2025 and a vision to 2030 with the case study of Vietnam Maritime University.  The article conducted researches, surveys, and interviews on the demand trend of S&T information use of information users and managers in the maritime field in the near future through the questionnaire system. From that, the paper proposed a policy framework to develop the S&T information system in Vietnam's maritime sector and analyze the advantages and disadvantages compared to the current policies. The author conducted a SWOT analysis to assess the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and challenges of the Maritime Science and Technology Information System. Proposal to supplement new policies and complete amendments to existing ones and assess the possible impacts when applying policies in practice. The article confirms the important role of the proposed policies in the context and the practical situation contributing to the successful implementation of the national maritime strategy.
