  1. MSI Applications E. Houstis (CS)A. Elmagarmid (CS)A. Nour (VET)L. Tsoukalas (NE)M. Ishii (NE)

  2. Overview • Purdue-On-Line: CS activities • Purdue-On-Line: Vet activities • PUMA: Purdue University Multi-Dimensional Integral Test Assembly

  3. Purdue-On-Line: A Facility for On-Line Instruction and Course Delivery E. Houstis (CS), A. Elmagarmid (CS), A. Nour (VET), N. Dhanjani (CS), L. Tsoukalas (NE)

  4. What is Purdue-On-Line (POL) today? • Research project trying to address the following issues: • Design and prototype an environment for on-line instruction on stationary and mobile platforms • Research teaching methodologies for on-line instruction • Experiment with a set of traditional courses • Evaluate courseware delivery models/software and on-line courses • Evaluate video servers (hardware/software), videoconferencing, and communication technologies • Assess the overall cost and impact of on-line education • Educate faculty

  5. Who supports this effort? • Primarily Intel Corporation and Purdue University • AT&T and IBM provided equipment support • International collaboration (Univ. of Crete, Greece)

  6. Disk Bank Video Server (CISCO Video Server) Video sources: Tape, Camera, Satellite, ... Digital Video Studio (Optibase Mpeg Card) Video Clients (with and without hardware decoders) Switched Ethernet Hub (3Com) CD-ROM Burner

  7. Purdue-On-line Course Multimedia Client/Server Systems • Course Management Tools • Learning Space (http://medusa) • WebCT (http://webct.cs.purdue.edu) • LearningLink (xyz) (considered) • Videoconferencing • CuSeeMe (videoconfering) • Multimedia documents • Vxtreme • Videoservers • CISCO • Lucent • Oracle

  8. Hardware Facility • Optibase movie maker mpeg encoder card • VCR/TV/Sony digital camera • PC based Servers (Medusa: Quad PC, 60Gbytes disk, 512 Mbytes RAM)

  9. Mobile Virtual Laboratories and PSEs forInstruction and Research • SoftLab (virtual lab framework) • WebPELLPACK (Problem Solving Environment)

  10. Programming in C/C++ • Freshman and Continuing Education Students • High School Background • Offered two times

  11. CS190E Tour • http://medusa

  12. CS541: Data Bases • Videolecture delivered by CISCO videoserver

  13. Veterinary School • On-line courses • Multimedia material

  14. Chemistry Course • Lecture 4 (“The World of Matter”)(Delivered by CISCO videoserver)

  15. Conclusions • On-line distance learning technology requirements • Easy of use technologies for developing, accessing, and storing multimedia documents • Indexed full screen, high resolution video material on demand • Tools for safeguarding digital library material • Videoconferencing • Secure course records • Efficient course management tools • Efficient network facilities • Multimedia content production facilities • POL will benefit from MSI infrastructure and research • POL environment, courses, material can be served as benchmark to MSI research
