Background: In recent years, offshoring enterprise resource planning (ERP) implementation has been an emerging trend in the field of offshoring information technology (IT). However, both ERP implementations and IT offshoring are fraught with risks, and when both ERP implementation and IT offshoring happen together, the risks become even more pronounced. Therefore, it is important to understand and identify the issues of ERP implementation in an offshoring situation. Objectives: The purpose of this paper is to highlight the key factors that enable successful offshoring ERP implementation from the client and the vendor perspective. Methods/Approach: The paper uses literature as a basis for identifying a critical success factor, data collected through semi-structured interviews with ERP managers at various levels of the subject organizations, and eventually their analysis. Results: The findings of the paper reveal that various factors are critical while implementing offshoring ERP. They include: offshoring partnership, project management, project team composition, people issues, communications and compliance of the onsite team composition. It is also noticed that ten factors are grouped into three categories: the client side, the vendor side, and both. Conclusions: Organizations are currently undertaking or considering the offshoring ERP implementation particularly from India. This paper will enable them to understand the possible challenges and areas of offshoring the ERP implementation program. The value and originality of the paper comes from the fact that up to now, ERP implementation in offshoring has not been comprehensively explored. This research provides a complete understanding of the critical success factors from the client, the vendor or both the client and the vendor perspective. It also enables researchers to analyse ili rethink ili review offshoring in different service areas.

The Internet has evolved from connecting people and later videos, photos, and text to more recently physical objects. Using sensors, physical objects can “talk” (transmit data) to each other and even command each other to perform a physical act. As things and people become more connected, such objects will also become part of social net-works, much in the same way that people tag photos on Facebook. In this way, the value of such objects will increase for both research and learning[12]. The IOT and Cloud computing technologies can provide solutions for the above-mentioned problems in the education system. Cloud computing enables users to control and access data via the Internet. The main users of a typical higher education cloud include students, faculty, administrative staff, Examination Branch and Admission Branch. All the main users of the institution are connected to the cloud. Separate login is provided for all the users for their respective work[12]. Teachers can upload their class Tutorials, assignments, and tests on the cloud server which students will be able to access all the teaching material provided by the teachers via the Internet using computers and other electronic devices both at home and college and 24X7. This paper focuses on the integration of Cloud and IOT for the education system. Connected de-vices can help make life easier for students with special needs. Many of the daydreams for IOT in education involve students taking advantage of new technologies to com-plete cool new projects.

This paper presents the results of a research project financed by the Chamber of commerce and industry of Slovenia. The main purpose of the project was to propose a model for useful suggestions management, including concrete suggestions for businesses. This is based on (a) an in-depth literature review, (b) case studies of three innovative, export orientated Slovenian companies and (c) the results of the implementation of this model in two Slovenian companies (as a pilot project). Concrete suggestions for businesses regarding the useful suggestions management process, the implementation itself, the rewarding and monitoring of useful suggestions activity and potential adaptations of the model to changes within the company are presented. Since the paper focuses on the implementation of useful suggestions management, offering a rich insight into the concrete processes involved in both developing such policies and carrying them out, companies may achieve great business value by implementing this proposed model.

Globalization is the process of transforming regional or local developments and phenomena into global realities. Globalization is also a process that unifies the world into a single society which is a combination of economical, social, political and technological influences. The most substantial actor in this process is the Internet and its contributions to data and knowledge procurement among the states, legal and natural persons. Moreover, Turkey is one of the leading nations in the world to encourage the use of Internet and e-government implementations to integrate Turkey with rest of the world and render premium services to her citizens and other related entities. The e-government which is also known as e-gov, online government or digital government, is a concept to utilize the Internet technology as a means to exchange information, provide services and transactions with citizens, business and other branches of government. Some e-government implementations both in practice and forthcoming in Turkey are e-Government Gateway, Public Sector Network, Information Disaster Recover System and Justice Net. It is aimed to constitute and develop knowledge society; to facilitate access to knowledge, decrease time consumption, provide better access to public services and enhance efficiency, ensure transparency and accountability, lower the costs and save sources in Turkey by e- government regulations. The aim of this study is to reveal the developments and realities of e-government in Turkey with respect to the ETransformation Turkey Project theoretically depending on comprehensive and credible, international and national publications.

Celem artykułu jest wskazanie czynników, które obecnie utrudniają wdrożenie koncepcji marketingu relacji w polskich przedsiębiorstwach. Scharakteryzowano cztery takie czynniki: menedżerską orientację na zyski w krótkim okresie, wielkość przedsiębiorstwa, specyficzne cechy polskiej kultury narodowej oraz rosnące znaczenie Internetu jako kanału komunikacji marketingowej. Artykuł ten zachęca do przyjęcia krytyczno-konstruktywnej postawy wobec marketingu relacji jako koncepcji działań na rynku, która nie jest w pełni uniwersalna.

Besides the founding treaties, regulations and directives are the principal documents of the law of the European Union. Terminology is misleading. They form genuine legislation of the European Union adopted by the European Parliament and the Council. Therefore, the failure of the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe renaming regulations to European laws and directives to European framework laws is regrettable.Regulations are addressed directly to individuals.Directives are addressed to the member states. They shall amend and enact their statutes and other laws within prescribed period of time. This paper emphasises the burdens and risks related to directives and their application.Ministries, cabinets and parliaments must make a great effort when transposing the directives.Directives shall be considered while related national law is interpreted.Direct application is envisaged in some cases of missing or botched implementation.Regulations are more feasible, despite they also need to be accompanied with national laws specifying procedures, sanctions and institutions. Indeed, the European Union has replaced several directives with regulations. Therefore, examples are listed. Eventual extensive replacement of directives with regulations is considered, but obstacles to this transformation of law of the European Union are admitted. At the moment, there is no considerable support for such transformation. Necessary debate is at the beginning.

Vedle zřizovacích smluv představují právo Evropské unie nařízení a směrnice. Označení je zavádějící, jedná se o skutečnou legislativu Evropské unie vytvářenou Evropským parlamentem a Radou. V tomto ohledu lze litovat neúspěchu Smlouvy o Ústavě pro Evropu, která měla přejmenovat nařízení na evropské zákony a směrnice na evropské rámcové zákony.Nařízení zakládají oprávnění a povinnosti jednotlivcům. Směrnice jsou určené členským státům, které mají ve stanovené lhůtě upravit či vytvořit své zákony či další předpisy. Článek vyzdvihuje zátěž spojenou se směrnicemi a úskalí doprovázející jejich uplatnění.Ministerstva, vlády a parlamenty členských států musejí věnovat značné úsilí jejich provedení. Potřebné je zohledňování směrnic při výkladu souvisejícího práva členských států. Připustilo se jejich uplatnění v některých situacích při opožděném či vadném provedení. Vhodnější jsou tak nařízení, jakkoli též potřebují doprovodné právo členských států určující procedury, sankce a instituce. Evropská unie začala směrnice nařízeními skutečně nahrazovat. Uvádějí se tak příklady takového nahrazení. Zvažují se možnosti rozsáhlejšího nahrazení směrnic nařízeními a překážky takové proměně práva Evropské unie. Lze připustit, že nyní taková proměna práva Evropské unie postrádá podporu. Debata je teprve na počátku.
