Creating a Collaborative Information Technology Environment for Higher Education
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:Creating a Collaborative Information Technology Environment for Higher Education (ID: FFPIU026)
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.

From Reference to Reality: Going Live with uPortal at The University of British Columbia
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:From Reference to Reality: Going Live with uPortal at The University of British Columbia (ID: EDU0109)
Author(s):Dave Frazer (The University of British Columbia) and Paul Zablosky (The University of British Columbia)
Origin:Presented at EDUCAUSE Annual Conferences (2001)
Type:Presentations/Speeches
Abstract:Going from a reference implementation to a production service is a revealing exercise. The robustness, reliability, and controlled behavior required in a production environment do not come without cost. The University of British Columbia was the first site to go into production with uPortal, a community-developed, open source, reference implementation of a university portal from JA-SIG. UBC's experience illustrates risks and pitfalls and various measures of success.
