The F-Cities project contributes at the fulfillment of eEurope+ and eEurope 2005 Action Plan objectives as allowing the Candidate Countries to leverage their strengths to the advantage of their citizens, and take advantage of the opportunities offered by the Information Society.

Introduction The project demonstrate a new integrated open web system solution as a unique tool of case - and document management for governmental institutions and citizens combined with wireless communication services.

Objectives The F-Cities will serve a new mechanism for the harmonized development of the open system methods by which the digital technologies will provide the opportunities to more easily access and re-use of the public information The F-Cities project will combine applied research, especially in the area of local- government, with generic technology development to support more intelligent and user-friendly provision, access and management of content. The F-Cities project will combine applied research, especially in the area of local- government, with generic technology development to support more intelligent and user-friendly provision, access and management of content.

Objectives (cont) The F-Cities aims to demonstrate the re-use of public information and personal data from classic (digital signature), to digital systems as well as to develop a citizen portal for self-service, access and case handling on the base of all eligible basic public services. In other words, 1. the citizen portal will enable self-case handling, allowing citizens to apply firstly on-line and track them throughout the delivery process. 2. secondly the citizens will enable using few public services throughout an interface on wireless communication platform.

METHODOLOGY (cont) 3.Offering a Multilingual open solution The project supported by a multilingual technology, MetaMorpho (developed by Morphologic Ltd. Hungary) on an Open Development Platform and it describes an efficient real-time comprehension assistance and machine translation method. Combining the advantages of example-based (EBMT) and rule-based machine translation principles that features and innovative user- friendly interface has been built.

Why Wireless Communication? Fast developing in new technologies and knowledge management bring new request also on working with spatial information. The spatial information management plays an important role. The technologies will be in the next years completely moved from desktop GIS solutions to distributed WEB systems with different access including mobile devices.

Additional Service Additional Service How the citizens, the officers, the business people can using the online and wireless services of F-Cities ? Creation of an Online training material (e- curriculum) for using a case-and document management system is necessary ! F-Cities MANUAL for All !

Benefits for All (local governments, citizens, businesses) especially for the accession countries The users will able to collaborate on cases and documents, creating pan organizational processes and ensure that the legislator´ s requirements on responsiveness and transparency in processing are met.

Partner search We are already have a partners from different European and National organizations, (e.g. via PRELUDE -ELANET ), governments, municipalities, IT companies… We are looking for a new partners from: governments, mobile operators, telcom companies, content developers, e-learning companies etc.
