A Research on the Sharing Platform of Wild Bird Data in Yunnan Province Based on Blockchain and Interstellar File System
Sharing scientific data is an effective means to rationally exploit scientific data and is vital to promote the development of the industrial chain and improve the level of science and technology. In recent years, the popularity of the open data platform has increased, but problems remain, including imperfect system architecture, unsound privacy and security, and non-standardized interaction data. To address these problems, the blockchain’s decentralization, smart contracts, distributed storage, and other features can be used as the core technology for open data systems. This paper addresses the problems of opening, allocation-right confirmation, sharing, and rational use of wild-bird data from Yunnan Province, China. A data storage model is proposed based on the blockchain and interstellar file system and is applied to wild-bird data to overcome the mutual distrust between ornithology institutions in the collaborative processing and data storage of bird data. The model provides secure storage and secure access control of bird data in the cloud, thereby ensuring the decentralized and secure storage of wild-bird data for multiple research institutions.

The Great Digital Accelerator
Despite this limitation, the volume of digital evidence has skyrocketed with the proliferation of technology, including cellphones and particularly body-worn cameras used by law enforcement officers. The Joint Technology Committee (JTC), established by the Conference of State Court Administrators, the National Association for Court Management, and the National Center for State Courts, published a call to action-Managing Digital Evidence in Courts2-in early 2016. The Plan B Workgroup also is charged with making recommendations on the expanded use of remote appearances by telephonic and video conferences, e-filing, e-access, online dispute resolution, jury service, conduct of jury trials, grand jury, juvenile proceedings, and other measures delivering online court services. Judge Samuel A. Thumma has served on the Arizona Court of Appeals, Division One, since 2012 and previously served as a judge on the Arizona Superior Court in Maricopa County for nearly five years.

Electronic Tax Filing System and Compliance among Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises in Lagos State, Nigeria
The study examined the effect of the adoption of an e-tax filing system on SMEs compliance. This was with a view to providing information on the compliance of SMEs with electronic tax filing systems in Lagos State. The study employed a descriptive survey research design, targeting a population of 91,097 SMEs. Taro Yamane’s formula was used to obtain a sample of 398 SMEs. Data were collected through well-structured questionnaires and analyzed using ordinal logit regression techniques. The study showed that factors such as performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and e-tax filing awareness have a positive significant influence on SMEs compliance in Lagos State. The study concluded that the electronic tax filing system positively impacted tax compliance of SMEs in Lagos State. The study recommended that tax authorities should enhance the performance and effort expectancy of the e-tax filing system in Lagos State by addressing technical issues, streamlining the filing process, and improving user interface design.

Acceptance of the eletronic method of filing tax returns by South African taxpayers: An exploratory study
The South African government has benefited to date from information technology in many ways. The importance of understanding and influencing South African citizens’ acceptance of E-Government services is critical, given the substantial investment in government communication, information system technology and the potential for cost saving. One of the most successful E-Government initiatives, the electronic filing system (eFiling), allows tax returns to be filed electronically. Despite many taxpayers adopting this method, a large number are still using the traditional manual method of filing tax returns. This study utilised the decomposed theory of planned behaviour with factors adjusted specifically for South Africa as a developing country to identify the possible determinants of user acceptance of the eFiling system among taxpayers. This exploratory study was conducted by means of a questionnaire survey. For taxpayers using the manual method, lack of facilitating conditions such as access to computer and internet resources was the most significant barrier to eFiling usage, while taxpayers using the electronic method reported perceived usefulness as the primary determinant in their decision to use eFiling. Understanding these acceptance factors can extend our knowledge of taxpayers’ decision-making and lead to better planning and implementation of future E-Government initiatives in South Africa and other developing countries.

US Supreme Court to adopt electronic filing system
[...]perhaps less evidently, the courts will often choose to be late to the harvest of American ingenuity. Criminal prosecutions, bankruptcy petitions, malpractice suits, discrimination cases, and patent disputes may all lead to the collection of confidential information that should be shielded from public view to protect the safety of witnesses, the privacy of litigants, and the integrity of the adjudicatory process.

E-Rulemaking: Bringing Data to Theory at the Federal Communications Commission
This Article examines the theoretical promise of e-rulemaking with an examination of data about all filings at the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) from 1999 to 2004. The Article first reviews the theoretical and empirical literature on e-rulemaking. It then analyzes a dataset of all filings at the FCC using descriptive statistics and regression analysis to determine what drives e-filings and whether the theoretical promise of e-rulemaking is being realized six years into the experiment. The Article finds that though there has indeed been a long-term trend away from paper filings and toward electronic filings, citizen participation seems not to have increased from earlier time periods. Rather, e-filing at the FCC has resulted in a marginal change to the rulemaking process and is merely another avenue by which interested parties file comments.

The Vulnerable Fortress
In this challenging book, James R. Taylor and Elizabeth J. Van Every argue that partly as a result of the introduction of information and communications technology into the workplace, the nature and authority of the traditional bureaucratic form of organization is being called into question. While not espousing technological determinism, they contend that developments in telecommunications, and computer software, constitute at one and the same time, a globalization and a fragmentation of organizational communications. These trends transcend the bounds of bureaucratic lines of control and integration, and presage the emergence of new organizational forms.
Suggesting that existing models of the organization as a rational machine are no longer adequate to explain or to cope with the complexity of the organizational changes taut are occurring in an information economy, Taylor and Van Every outline a communication-based alternative. Their approach explores the technology's impact on the transactional and symbolic dimensions of organization, and its implications for radical 're-framing' of management's own role.
The book touches on important issues in at least three major areas of research: organizational theory, informational technology, and the information society. Taylor and Van Every's interdisciplinary synthesis focuses attention on the fundamental nature of modern organizations from a unique communicational perspective.
Taylor and Van Every identify problems which are having and will continue to have a significant impact on business, governance, and society.
