EGOV showcases completed research, ongoing research, practitioner projects, and general-interest papers. For the fourth year in a row, the conference was an- teceded by a doctoral colloquium. Like its six predecessor conferences, EGOV 2008 brought together scholars and practitioners from across the globe. This year, five continents and 36 countries were represented. Along with the eGovernment Track at the Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS), and the International Conference on Digital Gov- ernmentResearch(dg.o)intheUSA,theEGOVconferencehasestablisheditself asaleadingannualconferenceoneGovernment,eParticipationandeGovernance in Europe with a global reach. In the “Call for Papers” this year, a number of topical threads were high- lighted, which attracted 119 submissions. Among these submissions, which in- cluded full researchpapers, work-inprogresspapers on ongoingresearchas well as project and case descriptions, 32 full research papers (empirical and concep- tual)wereacceptedfortheLNCSproceedingsofEGOV2008.Thesepapershave been clustered under the following headings: – Strategies and Frameworks – Transforming Government – Assessment and Evaluation – User Centricity and Inclusion – Service Architecture, Interoperability and Application of Semantic Technologies. The ongoing research and innovative contributions, case and project de- scriptions as well as workshop and panel abstracts, which were also accepted, are published in a complementary proceedings volume in Trauner Druck, Linz, Austria. Atquiteafewconferences,“bestpapers”arerecognizedandawarded.EGOV deliberately takes a different path. We do not pretend to be able to objectively identify “best” papers for the lack of adequate and agreed-upon metrics in a overwhelminglymulti-andinterdisciplinarydomainofstudywithnumerousand different standards of inquiry in the various disciplines. However, the EGOV organizationawardsoutstandingpapers,thatis,paperswhichmakeadifference. Outstanding papers are recognized in three categories: – The most interdisciplinary and innovative researchcontribution – The most compelling research reflection – The most promising practical concept VI Preface Asofthiswritingthe winnersinthesethreecategoriesofoutstandingpapers werenotyetdetermined.However,theawardceremonyhasbecomeafocalpoint of attention at the conference. ManypeoplemakelargeeventslikeEGOV2008happen.Wethankthemem- bers of the EGOV 2008 Program Committee and additional reviewers for their great efforts in reviewing the submitted papers. Gabriela Wagner of the DEXA organization as well as the DEXA staff deserve special thanks for taking care of organizationalissues of EGOV. Sebastian Wolf of the University of Koblenz- Landau/Germany was a key support in the administrative management of the reviewprocess,the set-upofthe programandcoordinationofauthors’requests, as well as in compiling the proceedings of EGOV 2008. ThePolytechnicofTurininNorthernItalyhostedthe 2008editionofDEXA and EGOV. This fine Polytechnic University prides itself of a long tradition in scholarship and higher education, which encompasses schools of architecture, engineering, and a graduate school. Across schools and programs, information technology is a mainstay on this institution’s scholarly agenda. For the eGov- ernment research and practice community this venue provides a natural home. We thank quite a number of local institutions for the support provided in the organizationof the event. It was a pleasure to visit the wonderful city of Turin. September 2008 Maria A. Wimmer Hans J.
