Communicating Vessels Model for the Intelligent Monitoring System of the Service Guarantee in the New Generation of Digital Open Universities (NG-DOU)

Abstract

The method of course exemption is improved through technology evolution. An example is given by the distance education, the electronic learning, or the mobile learning (m-learning) and the cloud learning. Using these techniques, some recent works highlight the advantages to build a New Generation of Digital Open Universities (DOUNG). This new model uses hybrid architecture based on the interconnection between Internet and GSM (Global System for Mobile). It then becomes necessary to establish the threshold of parameters that can compromise the service of course delivery alive because of the multimedia traffic constraints. This paper aims to contribute by highlighting significant parameters integrated in the knowledge base of the Intelligent Interface of Monitoring the Service Guarantee (IIMSG). From the network constraints and the lecture warehouse complexity, the parameters are set for the need of “service guarantee” mainly deriving from the synchronous access mode that brings the resource mobilization to reach a critical threshold. We use the communicating vessels model to illustrate the system operation and to identify all important parameters.
