Building Intelligent Educational Networks

An e-Learning platform together with its users may be seen as an Educational Network. Within such an Educational Network there are issues like: low reliability, unacceptable time response or bad resource management. The usual protocol between clients (users) and server (the e-Learning platform itself) is HTTP. This stateless protocol uses only request/response type interactions between clients and server. For improvement of afore mentioned issues there was built a module that gives the “intelligent” character of the Educational Network. This module records user performed actions, levels of data traffic and other performed activities in an attempt to solve or improve presented issues. The enforced mechanisms use state of the art machine learning algorithms, mathematical modeling and dynamic structures management, giving thus the intelligent character of the educational network. Key-Words: data traffic monitoring, machine learning, e-Learning, dynamic data structures
