Author_Institution :
Ryerson Univ., Toronto, Ont.
Abstract :
Streamulator is an easy to use Web-based automated streaming application that allows for live online video, audio and desktop content. It does not require the end user to download and install software on their computer prior to accessing the interactive sessions. Because it is an in-house solution, Streamulator can be developed and modified for future requirements. The concept of online office hours is discussed, along with Streamulator´s stages of development and implementation within this framework
