چکیده

ARCADE is a distance learning platform based on international standards and specifications in the areas of e-learning, object-oriented development, reusable knowledge and information exchange. The Unified Software Development Process and UML were consistently applied in the project. ARCADE was developed in two stages – the courseware delivery features were implemented first, and then, in a second version, they were integrated with a courseware-authoring environment. The authoring environment provides instructors with abilities for flexible multimedia content creation, maintenance, reuse, and view personalization.
