Author(s):Ira H. Fuchs
Origin:Publications from the Forum for the Future of Higher Education (2002)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:Fuchs discusses the impediments to collaboration as well as remarkable current efforts that might point the way to the future of information technology in higher education. He indicates that "Middleware", software which enables direct communication between systems and applications, will enable institutions to assemble and run a common architecture that lowers the threshold of effort and therefore substantially decreases the cost of development and ownership.

JAVA in Administration Special Interest Group: Technology for Building up Higher Education

Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:JAVA in Administration Special Interest Group: Technology for Building up Higher Education (ID: CMR0013)
Author(s):Roderic R. Dugger, III (Florida State University)
Origin:Presented at CUMREC Conferences (Archives) (2000)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:One of the powers of Java is the ability to build reusable modules (objects)-modules that are highly portable across hardware and OS environments, that are extremely flexibility and very scalable. This means they can be shared by organizations that have common needs-like many of us in higher education. The "shared solutions" potential of Java encourages institutions to join together to share best practices, innovative methodologies, tools, and actual modules. The purpose of this session is to continue building the awareness of JA-SIG-its purpose and plan, how it works, and how you can plug your institution into this Java technology repository.
