A virtual organization based grid e-learning environment in the SFINGE project

Abstract

Electronic learning has become of utmost interest for the current learning scenario. At present, Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) which work in the e-learning field requires flexibility and efficiency to face an increasingly competitive and evolving marketplace. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) allow to explore new types of organization of the work, Virtual Organizations, in order to provide more flexibility and efficiency to the enterprises. In this work we present the architecture of an ICT system able to enhance the development process of e-learning contents, through the implementation of criteria based on the resource sharing, the automated control of the production process and the design of a collaborative environment as a unique access point.
