Regionally Distributed Architecture for Dynamic e-Learning Environment (RDADeLE)

Grids are increasingly being used in applications, one of which is e-learning. As most of academic and business institutions and training centres around the world have adopted this technology in order to create, deliver and manage their learning materials through the Web, the subject has become the focus of investigate. Still, collaboration between these institutions and centres is limited. Existing technologies such as grid, Web services and agents are promising better results. In this paper we propose to make the e-learning environment more dynamic by dividing it into regional data grids. Multi-agent technology has been applied to integrate each regional data grid with the others in order to produce an architecture which is more scalable, stronger and efficient. The result is what we call it regionally distributed architecture for dynamic e-learning environment (RDADeLE).
