Smart governance for smart industries
Wojciech Cellary · 2013
In this paper, we present a vision of smartness as an environment in which humans and devices, visible and unseen, provide a wide range of e-services trying to make a person's life easier, more comfortable and more efficient. Economic and privacy issues are discussed as the most challenging. We argue that only direct income from consumers of e-services may guarantee sustainable development of smart industries. We present threats coming from smart industries and smart governance which may abuse trust of people who are served. We indicate the triple role of smart governance: first, to become smart and avoid a smartness gap between the public and private sectors; second, to boost smart industries, while third, and simultaneously, enforcing the codes of protecting privacy.
