Description
Summary:This paper describes the specification of interaction protocol for automating the document downloading and notification in the e-learning by adopting the Electronic Institution (EI) infrastructure. This interaction protocol is designed using specific tool called ISLA!DER editor which is one of the Electronic Institution Integrated Development Environment (EIDE) components. The idea of designing this interaction protocol is believed can eliminate the tendency of students from missing out the latest updates available in their e-learning. Furthermore, with the adoption of agent-based environment for e-learning will add a new feature to the existing e-learning in a way of assisting a busy lifestyle of students to hand over the task of downloading lecture materials and checking the latest announcements available in the e-learning to the software agent straight to their desktop. Hence, the students will not miss any important announcements or latest learning materials uploaded by their lecturers. In this paper, we are only focusing and describing the process of specifying interaction protocol using ISLANDER editor.
