The rapid advances in Information and Communication Technology (ICT), management, and network technologies have had key role in emerging heterogeneous large-scale distributed systems. The term of E-nursing has been used to refer to the incorporation of ICT into nursing. An Autonomous system has as its vision the creation of self managing systems to address today's concerns of complexity and total cost of ownership while meeting tomorrow's needs for pervasive and ubiquitous computation and communication. Purpose of this paper is to present an autonomous virtual organization for e-nursing describing their characteristics, effects on quality factors, their building blocks architecture, and challenges.

The Use of ICT in business has changed views about traditional business. With VO, organizations with out physical, geographical, or structural constraint can collaborate with together in order to fulfill customer requests in a networked environment. This idea improves resource utilization, reduces development process and costs, and saves time. Virtual Organization (VO) is always a form of partnership and managing partners and handling partnerships are crucial. Virtual organizations are defined as a temporary collection of enterprises that cooperate and share resources, knowledge, and competencies to better respond to business opportunities. This paper presents an overview of virtual organizations and main issues in collaboration such as security and management. It also presents a number of different model approaches according to their purpose and applications.
