E-Government increases transparency and
im-proves communication between the government and the users. Providing e-Government
services to business sector is a fun-damental mission of governmental
agencies in Saudi Arabia. However, the adoption of e-Government systems is
less than satisfactory in many countries, particularly in developing
coun-tries. This is a significant factor that can lead to e-Government
failure and, therefore, to the waste of budget and effort. One pertinent,
unanswered question is what are the key factors that influence the adoption
and utilisation level of users from business sector. Unlike much research in
the literature that has utilised common technology acceptance models and
theories to analyse the adoption of e-Government, which may not be sufficient
for such analysis, this study proposes a conceptual framework following a
holistic approach to analyse key factors that influence the adoption and
utilisation of e-Government in Saudi Arabia. The developed framework,
E-Government Adoption and Utilisation Model (EGAUM), was developed based on
critical evaluation of several common models and theories related to
technology acceptance and use including Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and
Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), in conjunction
with analysis of e-Government adoption literature. The study involved 48
participating business entities from two major cities in Saudi Arabia, Riyadh
and Jeddah. The descriptive and statistical analyses are presented in this
paper and the results indicated that all the proposed factors have degree of
influence on the adoption and utilisation level. Perceived Benefits,
Awareness, Previous Experience, and Regulations & Policies were found to
be the significant factors that are most likely to influence the adoption and
usage level of users from business sector. – See more at: Click

Towards
a Comprehensive Model for E-Government Adoption and Utilisation Analysis: The
Case of Saudi Arabia
|
ملخص المشاركة:

E-Government increases transparency and
improves communication between the government and the users. However, users’
adoption and usage is less than satisfactory in many countries, particularly
in developing countries. This is a significant factor that can lead to

Unlike much research in the literature that has utilised common technology
acceptance models and theories to analyse the adoption of e-Government, which
may not be applicable for e-Government acceptance analysis, this study
proposes a more comprehensive and appropriate framework for analysing the
significant factors that could influence the adoption and utilisation of e-Government in Saudi Arabia, as this is becoming a
necessity.

Exploring determinants of adoption and higher
utilisation for e-Government: A study from business sector perspective in
Saudi Arabia
|
ملخص المشاركة:
|
Providing e-Government services to business
sector is a fundamental mission of governmental agencies in Saudi Arabia. The
adoption of e-Government systems is less than satisfactory in many countries,
particularly in developing countries. One pertinent, unanswered question is
what are the key factors that influence the adoption and utilisation level of
users from business sector. This paper utilised e-Government Adoption and
Utilisation Model (EGAUM) proposed in our previous work in order to analyse
determinants of higher level of e-Government adoption and usage. The study
involved 48 participating business entities from two major cities in Saudi
Arabia, Riyadh and Jeddah. The descriptive analysis is presented in this
paper and the results indicated that all the proposed factors have degree of
influence on the adoption and utilisation level. Perceived Benefits,
Functional Quality of Service, Previous Experience, Perceived Simplicity,
Accessibility and Regulations & Policies factors were found to be the significant
factors that are most likely to influence the adoption and usage level of
users from business sector.

Virtual currency concept: Its
implementation, impacts and legislation
|
ملخص المشاركة:
|
Due to the rapid development of information
and communication technologies, many activities in our daily life have been
merged online and they become more flexible and more effective. A huge growth
of online users number has activated virtual word concepts and created a new
business phenomenon which is virtual currency to facilitate the financial
activities such as buying, selling and trading. Virtual currency represent
valuable and intangible objects which are used electronically in different
applications and networks such as online social networks, online social
games, virtual worlds and peer to peer networks. The use of virtual currency
has become widespread in many different systems in recent years. This paper
investigates and analyses many aspects of virtual currency platforms such as
offered opportunities, implementation mechanisms, regulation status,
challenges and concerns. The results provide novel and useful resource to be
used as a base for using, implementing and developing virtual currency platforms
in a controlled manner as well as providing a scientific content for further
research work.

Key Factors Influencing the Adoption and
Utilisation of E-Government in Saudi Arabia
|
ملخص المشاركة:
|
E-Government
increases transparency and improves communication between the government and
the users. However, users’ adoption and usage is less than satisfactory in
many countries, particularly in developing countries. This is a significant
factor that can lead to e-Government failure and, therefore, to the waste of
budget and effort. Unlike much research in the literature that has utilised
common technology acceptance models and theories to analyse the adoption of
e-Government, which may not be applicable for e-Government acceptance
analysis, this research proposes a more comprehensive and appropriate
framework called E-Government Adoption and Utilisation Model (EGAUM) for
analysing the significant factors that could influence the adoption and
utilisation of e-Government in Saudi Arabia, as this is becoming a necessity.
EGAUM was developed based on a critical analysis of the literature on
e-Government adoption, in conjunction with insights from several models and
theories that are commonly used to analyse the acceptance and usage of
technologies including Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA), Technology Acceptance
Model (TAM), Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) and Unified Theory of Acceptance
and Use of Technology (UTAUT).
