Pan-European Satellite-Derived Coastal Bathymetry—Review, User Needs and Future Services

E-Government: services, needs and user satisfaction

Within the e-government process, needs are identified and people try to come up with ideas for the public sector that will increase the effectiveness as well as lead to cost savings. Consequently, many new electronic services are being developed. As a result, Quality of Service (QoS) becomes an even more critical issue in the domain of electronic services. This paper starts by a general discuss...

Pan-European E-Government Services on the Semantic Web Services

Integrated e-government in the European Union requires good conceptual and technological foundations. Aligned with the European e-government strategy, we present how infrastructure for national as well as cross-country e-government services can be facilitated by the Semantic Web Services concepts and technologies. With respect to this infrastructure, we identify key topics for our research.

Future Satellite Services, Concepts and Technologies

Introduction Thirty years ago, the objective of the space sector was to be in space. Now, the main drive is to use space, to sell it, and to profit from it. The space sector is currently in the transition phase from being funded mostly by the public sector to raising funds from private shareholders; from being a purely researchoriented activity to a commercial venture with such successful appli...

Realizing Future Broadband Satellite Network Services

Future satellite communication systems proposed use geosynchronous (GEO) satellites, medium earth orbit (MEO), and low earth orbit (LEO) constellations. Most of the next generation satellite systems will use fast packet switching with onboard processing to provide full two-way services to and from earth stations. One of the major service drivers is a high data rate internet access carried over ...
