Abstract

The main objective of many e-government solutions is establishing smart government through developing user oriented, integrated and interoperable services. However, the heterogeneous and distributed nature of public administrations and the limit of traditional service discovery approaches does not enable achieving efficiently this objective. Rather achieving semantic interoperability through the development of shared e-government knowledge can be the key to smart government. As its main contribution, this paper presents a semantic modelling approach of data and public services, and a service discovery approach for building smart government applications. Our approach uses both semantic web services and conceptual structures technologies. Applying these technologies was shown to have an extremely high potential impact in smart government development. They enabled the improvement of the data and services description, of multiple resources, with additional semantic information, which allowed an automatic processing of information and services.
