Books: Programming Principles and Evaluating eGovernment Portal Functionality in KM Perspective

I have published two books; Programming Principles (2009) and Evaluating eGovernment Portal Functionality in KM Perspective (2015) discussing some aspects in the area of Information Communication Technology. 

The first book,  Programming Principles (2009), gives an overview what a programmer should consider for developing a software package to solve a particular problem. The Book describes a Software Process starting from requirement analysis up to delivery of the software and maintenance,Software Engineering Principles, Software Project Management Concepts, defines the managing process in Software project Management, discuss the software matrix, assess the risk involved in software projects including the management techniques and the mitigation.

The second book is titled  Evaluating eGovernment Portal Functionality in KM Perspective (2015) : Evaluating and Enhancing Ethiopian E-Government Portal Functionality in Knowledge Management Perspective and I am a co-author with Wondaferaw  and Girum. Knowledge Management (KM) is an important consideration in e-Government portals to ensure that knowledge flows efficiently between Governments, individuals and organizations. A crucial aspect of e-Government portals that has not been addressed adequately is, the extent to which KM have been implemented and identifying the direction to enhance e-Government portal in KM perspective. In this research evaluation model known as KM model for e-Government with three KM broad mechanisms for portals: Knowledge Collection, Organization and Application were employed. Using this model, evaluation checklist was developed based on analysis of the literature and best experience of other countries e-Government portal and used to evaluate ministry level organization e-Government portals with the objective of investigating the extent to which KM mechanisms have been implemented and to identify direction to enhance portals. Moreover, survey questioner and interview guide was used to investigate the degree of application of ICT for KM in research entities and its contribution to support e-Government portal enhancement.
