AN OPEN ABSTRACT FRAMEWORK FOR MODELING INTEROPERABILITY OF MOBILE LEARNING SERVICES

摘要

The MOBIlearn project, co-funded by the European Commission, the National Science Foundation and AU Department of Education, Science and Training, is strategically positioned to provide relevant research outcomes in the field of innovative use of mobile environments to meet the needs of learners, working by themselves and with others. The objectives are achieved by defining a set of mobile services identified and specified through an open abstract framework. This assures proper interoperability between MOBIlearn services themselves and existing services provided by third parties, such as the Open Knowledge Initiative or the IMS Global Learning Consortium. The paper introduces the MOBIlearn project and its underlying approach describing the Open Mobile Access Abstract Framework (OMAF).
