Grid systems integrate distributed resources to form self-organization and self-management autonomies. Recently, for large-scale computation requirement, the collaboration of different grid systems is one of the hot research topics. In this paper, we propose a meta-grid framework, called G2G framework, to harmonize autonomic grids for realizing the federation of different grids. The G2G framewo...

Compared to other e-government sectors, Government-to-Government (G2G) is a new research area. Up to now, a commonly accepted definition doesn’t exist and the domain of G2G projects is still unclear. The short experience accumulated in these few years isn’t enough for the responsible groups to extrapolate widely accepted theories. Many theories are concerned only with the technical aspect of in...

To highlight the growth of e-government and the importance of its services it is essential to evaluate the performance of the service delivery to customers. Research indicates that traditional performance indexes are not suitable for this evaluation; moreover, it is noticeable that the e-government services are intangible and invisible. Among different e-government services, measurement of qual...

Ultra low delay video transmission is becoming increasingly important. Video-based applications with ultra low delay requirements range from teleoperation scenarios such as controlling drones or telesurgery to autonomous control of dynamic processes using computer vision algorithms applied on real-time video. To evaluate the performance of the video transmission chain in such systems, it is imp...

INTRODUCTION The main scope of this article is to present a heuristic model to deploy government-to-government initiatives effectively, as well as establish some key success factors for building governmentto-government (G2G) enterprises successfully. It also aims to show how public agencies themselves can benefit when they are electronically linked to others, thereby innovating and streamlining...

Purpose – This study explores Twitter use by Korea’s central government by classifying the government’s Twitter-based networking strategies into government-to-citizen (G2C) and government-to-government (G2G) strategies. Design/methodology/approach – The study investigates the nature of social media interactions and networking strategies in the Korean government by extracting tweets, follower/fo...

Despite the huge success of the Internet in providing basic communication services, its economic architecture needs to be upgraded so as to provide end-to-end guaranteed or more reliable services to its customers. Currently, a user or an enterprise that needs end-to-end bandwidth guarantees between two arbitrary points in the Internet for a short period of time has no way of expressing its need...

This paper proposes a conceptual model that groups different factors that can influence relationships between government agencies. The model is based on a systematic literature review of published papers related to Government-to-Government (G2G) relationships. Through analysis of selected papers, we identified, classified, and organized factors that may impact relationships between government a...

Grid systems integrate distributed resources to form self-organization and self-management autonomies. With the widespread development of grid systems around the world, grid collaboration for largescale computing has become a prevalent research topic. In this paper, the authors propose a meta-grid framework, named the Grid-to-Grid (G2G) framework, to harmonize autonomic grids in realizing a gri...
