Chapter Chapter 7 in eDemocracy & eGovernment, 2019, pp 129-160 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Chapter 7 describes important procedures and systems for computer-aided collaboration. Section 7.1 analyses the components of a Web-based information system and deals with document administration. The architecture of a content management system is the topic of Sect. 7.2. Section 7.3 discusses the use of wiki tools in the eGovernment.Weblogs are in the cross-hairs of communication media; their application in the administration is discussed in Sect. Sect. 7.4. Group-ware systems in Sect. 7.5 are technically mature products for information exchange, work-flow control, collaboration, and data management. Depending on the complexity of the services, the administrative units must rethink their organization (Sect. 7.6). Section 7.7 contains bibliographical notes. The case study about virtual campus is brought in by the distance teaching University of Hagen, in which over 50,000 students of the areas culture and social studies, computer science, business administration, and law are registered. Additionally, a second case study about the implementation of accessibility in Massive Open Online Courses, is presented.
