There is a growing number of organizations and universities now utilising e-learning practices in their teaching and learning programs. These systems have allowed for knowledge sharing and provide opportunities for users to have access to learning materials regardless of time and place. However, while the uptake of these systems is quite high, there is little research into the effectiveness of ...

Military networks constantly evolve to accommodate state-of-the-art technological developments across both military and commercial systems. Operating and maintaining such complex networks is no longer a trivial task. This paper presents a policy-based network management system for military networks which allows non-technical personnel (e.g. the military commander) to guide the network to behave...

As Chinese medicine (CM) has increased in popularity globally it now becomes imperative to investigate ways in which safe, efficient, effective and evidence-based approaches might be adopted into CM practice. In the case of western or more traditional healthcare delivery practice, IS/IT is often adopted and employed to assist in this regard and thus this paper examines how IS/IT might be used t...

An ongoing trend of e-learning systems is to not only concentrate on the management of learning materials and other information, but instead to focus on learning processes. Thus a stronger focus is put on the people engaged in learning activities: the learners which shall be served by an e-learning system and the teachers who instruct and guide the learners. The Conceptual Content Management (C...

Content Management System (CMS) is an information system that allows publishing, editing, modifying content over internet through a central interface. By the evolution of internet and related communication technologies, CMS has become a key information technology (IT) for organizations to communicate with its internal and exterior environment. Just like any other IT projects, the selection of C...

Digital age (information/computer age) offers many opportunities. Many transforms and changes have been made in public and private sectors. It is clear to say that education is one of the most important areas that has been trying to use IT tools. Today, e-learning is an important way of removing time and place constraints between students and instructors. In addition, it is the best way to make...

The purpose of this study is to promote the productivity of authoring teaching materials for teachers at primary and junior high school levels in Taiwan. Therefore, we develop a Content Repository Management System (CRMS) for management of learning objects on web-based learning environment. The ultimate goal of this study is to pursue cost-effective and high quality content on the web for schoo...

Integrated healthcare information systems, such as a closed loop medication management system (CLMMS), have been developed to support the inter-linked work of multiple user groups including doctors, pharmacists, and nurses. With the challenges faced in assessing the use and impact of such systems, there is limited research on this topic that takes into account the behaviors of multiple user gro...

We discuss a system for the digital capture of museum artefacts which are accumulated into a multimedia repository comprising 3D models, images, video and sound clips as well as textual descriptions. A comprehensive set of metadata is recorded and stored alongside these various media with the aim of reusing and re-purposing them for multiple applications. We investigate issues relating to both ...
