Abstract

Digital Libraries and eLearning evolution has been urged by the advent of Internet technologies. There are many international organizations, consortia and institutions that have been conducting research in these two fields, for the last fifteen years. Although these two worlds are referring to a common audience, they are evolving independently and the convergence between them is deficient. The most important aspect of this non-convergence is the interoperability problem. The purpose of this thesis is to provide an effective proposal for addressing the interoperability problem between Digital Libraries and eLearning. This thesis proposes a framework for federated searches between Digital Libraries and eLearning and supports the delivery of standardized unified formatted objects (SCORM 2004). The thesis’ proposition is a bidirectional approach towards the exchange of digital and learning objects by utilizing a widely adopted standard, SCORM 2004. The proposed framework provides a unified interface between Digital Libraries and eLearning, in conjunction with the construction and delivery of SCORM 2004 objects. The framework’s functionality is supported by an Application Programming Interface (API) which is based on Web services and utilizes the principles of the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA).
