A three year cross border project between universities in Sweden and Finland funded the development of a digital communication system between parents and daycares called Parents' Meeting. The system allows for 24/7 communication about daily activities and plans. It has been implemented in over 300 daycares and schools in Sweden and Finland. The project also developed two e-systems for the municipality of Korsholm using open source software to reduce costs compared to expensive proprietary systems. Going forward, the project aims to commercialize Parents' Meeting, strengthen the open source community around it, and help other municipalities implement similar systems.

The document discusses the role of SME associations in encouraging research and innovation. It notes that over 95% of companies in the textile and clothing industry are SMEs, and SMEs have specific needs when it comes to research and innovation support. SME associations are well positioned to support the research and innovation needs of their SME members due to their industry knowledge, networking capabilities, and ability to communicate requirements to policymakers. However, associations also face limitations like lack of scientific expertise and potentially conflicting interests among members. The document provides recommendations for how associations can better support SME innovation and how policymakers can help associations in this role.

To Regulate or not to Regulate - Opening the AI Black Box for Parliaments
This document discusses the regulation of artificial intelligence (AI) in parliaments. It notes that while AI is being hyped, current systems are narrow and not true artificial general intelligence. Only about 10% of parliaments currently make use of AI. The document examines potential AI use cases for parliamentary processes and outlines several directions for research on AI challenges like ethics, bias, and legal issues. It argues that parliaments need to work cooperatively to determine appropriate regulatory parameters for emerging technologies and develop in-house regulations and transparency to govern advanced algorithms and build trust.

Compatibility of free and open source software (FLOSS) licenses refers to whether code distributed under different licenses can be combined. Strict compatibility is one-way, as GPL code cannot be added to BSD code, though BSD code can be added to GPL. Copyleft licenses like GPL have predominant effect, making other licenses incompatible. Newer licenses like GPLv3 and EUPL include clauses to improve compatibility, such as allowing additional permissions or defining compatible licenses. Compatibility issues must be considered before and during development to allow code reuse and acceptability.

The OpenSAGA project aims to provide a development platform for e-government applications that are compliant with the SAGA standard. The technical approach uses an executable web application model, graphical modeling, and the Eclipse IDE. The communal approach involves public sector partners, scientific councils, sponsors, and integration partners. After one year, there was a lack of knowledge about SAGA, lack of community and trust in open source for the public sector. Missing links include open source strategy, marketing, and lobbying in the public sector. Lessons learned are that a commercially viable open source approach exists with tangible benefits for the public sector.

The EUPL is an open source license approved by the European Commission to promote sharing of software between governments in Europe. It provides a common legal framework for licensing software in all EU languages. Several EU countries have begun adopting policies that recommend or require the use of the EUPL for government-developed software. While adoption is still uneven, the EUPL is establishing itself as an important part of the legal infrastructure supporting open source and sharing of software in the public sector in Europe.

ePractice: eProcurement Workshop 25 May 2011 - Robert Deller
This document discusses the role of eProcurement during times of economic crisis. It identifies two key political drivers for eProcurement: the need for interoperability between systems and an expectation of standard technological operations. Public need drives performance gains, while the economy drives procurement activities. Stewardship by the government aims to support both public and private sectors. The focus of this stewardship is continued support for the public sector to create demand for interoperability and open procurement processes to promote business efficiency.

The document outlines Portugal's mandatory use of e-procurement since 2009 and key results from 2010, the first year of mandatory e-procurement, including 75% of procurement conducted electronically. It concludes by discussing lessons learned and challenges in integrating procurement information and developing an end-to-end e-procurement system.
ePractice: eProcurement Workshop 25 May 2011 - Manuel Caño
The document discusses IT governance for electronic public procurement. The European Commission aims to create a single pan-European public procurement market through interoperability and generalization standards. Individual contracting authorities are responsible for developing their own e-procurement plans, but guidance is needed to avoid failures and ensure plans align with the overall objective. Adopting the ISO/IEC 38500:2008 standard for IT governance can help contracting authorities develop effective plans, reduce costs and implementation times, and support the generalization of e-procurement across Europe.

The document discusses the current state of accessibility in public digital terminals (PDTs) such as ATMs and ticket machines. It notes that accessibility is very low due to a lack of standards. Current trends aim to model user needs and preferences to automatically adapt interfaces (direct interaction) or reduce interaction by allowing users to conduct transactions via their own devices like PCs or phones (indirect interaction). The lack of accessibility excludes millions of citizens from services. Standards would help replicate accessible pilots and share best practices to increase accessibility.

The study evaluated the acceptability of a proposed Vidar virus radar system that uses mobile phones and wireless networks to track locations and notify users of potential contagion risks. A survey of 59 hospital employees and patients found that most were willing to pay substantial amounts for the phone and monthly service, indicating high acceptability. Willingness to pay tended to increase with higher education/income up to a threshold of €200-300 monthly income. The most representative respondent was willing to pay €50/month for the service and €150 for the phone on a €300 monthly salary. This suggests the system would be economically feasible for hospitals.
European Journal Epractice Volume 8.6
When cameras are placed in homes for eHomecare, three legal mechanisms protect privacy:
1) Personal data protection laws cover patient images but debate exists around covering occasional visitors.
2) Patients are protected by broader privacy rights but occasional visitors may not be.
3) Right to personal portrayal protects recognizable individuals captured by cameras.
Currently, camera use requires patient consent due to these protections. Whether occasional visitor consent is also needed remains open for discussion.
European Journal Epractice Volume 8.5
This document discusses decision support systems in healthcare and their application through simulation methods. It provides an overview of two case studies - the first being a typical simulation application for a private health center that fell short, and the second being a collaborative multidisciplinary project that addressed the limitations of the first. It uses these cases to demonstrate the potential and limitations of decision support systems, and presents a framework for a wider collaborative multidisciplinary decision support system that could better target and assist health authorities and managers in line with the EU ehealth agenda. The paper identifies a lack of interconnectivity between simulated models as a key adoption barrier and recommends the use of open interoperable models to address complexity and add sustainability.
