Abstract :
Existing e-learning courses are designed to guide users acquire information or to help users undertake specific tasks. User is expected to increase proficiency about the context via the stationary computer. However, such design cannot allow multiple users to access the system simultaneously, thus leading inefficiency and lack of expandability. A framework to support M-learning in RFID system is therefore proposed. A mobile user first can use a mobile computer to communicate with home agent to acquire the related server information the may be interested in. The framework can navigate mobile agents to the mobile computer when the tag is detected within the coverage of the reader. The framework enables a mobile user to directly access his/her personalized services from the mobile computer. The experimental simulation demonstrates its efficiency.
