Interactive Mobile Learning Environment for Processing Computational Science Simulation Task

Abstract

Influence of IT revolution represented by Internet in late 20th century keep growing with glaring development of computer and network performance, constructing cyber infrastructure. The paradigm has already changed education and life style rapidly. Especially, It affects behaviors of growing generation and learning style. Method of motivating interest of engineering and science is needed, reflecting growing generation’s learning style. Web contents also get a lot of changes with rapid propagation of web accessible devices like smartphone and tablet pc. Existing web contents were implemented only for PC and supplied same contents regardless of devices. For servicing contents fit for different mobile environment, same contents are developed for every devices. As a result, development duration is enlarged and maintenance expenditure is increased. To resolve these problem, we will develop interactive mobile learning environment for computational science simulation task processing in this paper. It is better than existing education based on experiment in that it enables user to access the service everywhere with mobile device and its maintenance expenditure is cheaper than existing laboratory maintenance. we need not to consider each OS platform because it uses web page platform.
