Creating And Visualizing Lessons In Egle Elearning Platform
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Human - Computer Interaction - Year 2009, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Together with the development of the Internet and with the large use of personal computers, the eLearning Platforms have known an accelerated development providing educational services to significantly lower costs than classical methods. Today, the development of these systems has been slowed down because of their limited processing and storage capabilities that can be used at once. Being used in new domains that require the management and processing of large volumes of information (ex. satellite images, 3D simulations etc.), the eLearning Environments based on single server architectures will be replaced by the ones based on Grid networks that will provide the capabilities necessary to perform this kind of operations. This paper will describe the eGLE eLearning Platform which has been created based on Grid technology and will also present a method to create lessons in Earth Observation domain using these extended storage and processing capabilities.
