摘要

随着对信息技术(IT)服务的需求日益增长，非洲大学应考虑采用云计算来满足对不同IT服务日益增长的需求。云计算可以为非洲大学提供良好的商业模式，因为这些大学往往没有足够的资源和知识来管理必要的教育信息技术(IT)支持。研究和开发活动必须在高等教育环境中交付，而云计算旨在消除用户的这些复杂性。本文描述了非洲高等教育的重要性和面临的挑战，介绍了云计算技术、服务和部署模型，尽管非洲高等教育面临挑战，但在高等教育中采用云计算作为一种可能的解决方案。

Higher Education and the Adoption of Cloud Computing Technology in Africa

With the emergent demand for information technology (IT) services, African Universities should consider adopting cloud computing to meet with this growing demand on different IT services, Cloud computing could provide good business models for African universities since these universities often do not have enough resources and knowledge to manage the necessary information technology (IT) support for educational, research and developmental activities that must be delivered in a higher education environment, while cloud computing aims to eliminate these complexities from the user. This paper describes the importance and the challenges facing higher education in Africa, introduction to cloud computing technologies, services and deployment models, adoption of cloud computing in higher education as a possible solution despite the challenges facing higher education in Africa.

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Communication is an online, multi-media, academic journal that adheres to the highest standards of peer review and engages established and emerging scholars from anywhere in the world. The International Journal of Communication is an interdisciplinary journal that, while centered in communication, is open and welcoming to contributions from the many disciplines and approaches that meet at the crossroads that is communication study. We are interested in scholarship that crosses disciplinary lines and speaks to readers from a range of theoretical and methodological perspectives. In other words, the International Journal of Communication will be a forum for scholars when they address the wider audiences of our many sub-fields and specialties, rather than the location for the narrower conversations more appropriately conducted within more specialized journals. USC Annenberg Press USC Annenberg Press is committed to excellence in communication scholarship, journalism, media research, and application. To advance this goal, we edit and publish prominent scholarly publications that are both innovative and influential, and that chart new courses in their respective fields of study. Annenberg Press is among the first to deliver journal content online free of charge, and devoted to the wide dissemination of its content. Annenberg Press continues to offer scholars and readers a forum that meets the highest standards of peer review and engages established and emerging scholars from anywhere in the world.
