Integration of e-learning and cloud computing platform through software engineering

An enhanced e-learning network based on integration between cloud environment and Web is probably suggested for the existing and upcoming e-learning tools that are considered as Software as a Service (SaaS). This paper examines three most recent patents that were awarded between February 2012 and May 2014 in the area of e-learning. In addition, we have proposed a new direction which is the possibility of integration of the E-learning processes with Cloud Processes. This kind of integration needs to enable the Software Engineering concepts. Thus it is possible to design and develop the E-learning processes and then the Cloud Computing processes are integrated with the e-learning application process to formulate a new platform is called a Cloud E-learning system/platform. It is expected that such integration is an iterative, incremental development process leads to faster delivery of more constructive software. To demonstrate the proposed approach, a proposed deployment of Cloud e-learning software has been presented.
