Abstract

The current modus operandi of the Hungarian public administration does not allow on-demand (dynamic) workload balancing. Underlying assumptions taken for granted that block the road to improvement are identified and a possible improved model is presented. There are two necessary conditions for workload balancing; the implementation of central registers (databases) of the involved entities (resources, cases etc.) and the establishment of an allocation (or matching) mechanism. The paper concludes with a detailed architectural view on the list of registers needed and regulated electronic e-government services.
