Developing an information system integration strategy, at enterprise level is one of the most difficult issues that the information systems managers must solve, within the present conditions. When settling the integration strategy, two aspects must mainly be taken into account: assuring a complete integration solution of the information systems and building an integration infrastructure of the applications. The present paper aims at presenting few aspects regarding the integration of the information systems at organizational level and describing a specifically developed IBM architecture.

The present article concerns present status of implementation in Romania and Europe of eCall service and the proposed business models regarding eCall function implementation in Romania. eCall system is used for reliable transmission in case of crush between In Vehicle System and Public Service Answering Point, via the voice channel of cellular and Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). eCall service could be initiated automatically or manual the driver. All data presented in this article are part of researches made by authors in the Sectorial Contract Implementation study regarding eCall system, having as partners ITS Romania and Electronic Solution, with the Romanian Ministry of Communication and Information Technology as beneficiary.

Nowadays sustainable development concerns not only corporations, companies of all types and sizes, but also local or national communities and development regions at national or global level. The unprecedented development of information and communication technologies (ICT) lately, their use in all areas of economic, social, cultural life, etc. has determined the researchers to study and evaluate to what extent they influence the development of companies and local, regional or national communities. The paper analyzed, through statistical models, the correlation between the level of use of communication technologies by organizations and the territorial sustainable development of the local communities in which these organizations operate. Empirical findings showed that the use of new communication technologies led directly to the increase of activities from priority areas for the sustainable development of the local community, such as the health, the production and supply of energy and drinking water, and the waste processing. These results can encourage the managers of organizations to implement such technologies and the decision makers from local and central administration to promote and stimulate these ICT activities.

The article will illustrate the existing connection between the need for sustainable development of any organization and the opportunity to access European funded projects that can provide funding lines for much of the activities through which the organization can actually implement social responsibility measures. The purpose of this research aims at checking by what degree the use of european structural funds through structural development projects is influencing the sustainable development of organizations, especially for social responsibility and environmental protection actions. The authors propose the use of european structural funds as solution for supporting the sustainable development of organizations. The developed econometric model was validated and the results of the research have confirmed the hypothesis of the research. These results were interpreted at the end of the research paper.

The article begins with a short presentation of ECall, an extension of the emergency service 112 to a part of the recently developed cars, which is unique in Europe at this moment. Moreover, the article outlines the rules and regulations from EU in this field, the development stage of the ECall component for the recently developed cars and several concerns regarding the expansion of the system to other means of transport. Romania is among the first countries in EU which participate in the development and implementation of 112 emergency services and its ECall component for cars, as well as its expansion to other means of transport. Romanian-American University has been involved in the 112 emergency system and Ecall projects for several cars, and it is currently a partner in the European funded project UEF Transport/INEF/No.INEA/UEF/TRAN/A2014/1031743/Infrastructure Harmonised eCall European Pilot (I HeERO).
