摘要:
The present invention provides a distributed learning management architecture that is “componentized” for increased distribution and scalability. Specifically, the present invention provides an architecture in which multiple content servers, delivery servers and/or live session servers can be provided to accommodate multiple geographic locations. The present invention further provides an off-line learning architecture that allows the teachings of the distributed learning management architecture to be implemented on an individual client.

The present invention provides a method, system and computer program product for administering learning objects within a learning management system. In the invention, a learner can select various learning materials in the system, known as “learning objects”, and can aggregate these learning objects in a special category or “learning folder” directly on the system. The learning folders can be separate from an existing course catalog of learning objects. Each learner can establish and delete learning folders, and can modify each learning folder by adding or removing learning objects to and from the folder. Finally, while each learning folder created by a user can at first only be accessed by the user, a user can allow other learners in the system to access the folder by establishing a “learning link” for the folder, which dictates which other learners can access the learning folder.

Software is automatically provisioned for a user by obtaining provisioning rules that define target objects and threshold criteria for competency level and learning history. Information indicative of the user's competency level and learning history is obtained using the target objects, and the threshold criteria defined by the provisioning rules is compared with the information indicative of the user's competency level and learning history. Provided that the information indicative of the user's learning history and competency level meet the threshold criteria defined in the provisioning rules for competency and learning history, the user is provided with access to the software.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for the table merging of correlated columns with row data reduction. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for table merging with row data reduction for merged columns can include selecting a first table of columns and a second table of columns for merger in a computer data processing system. A column of rows in the first table can be matched with a column of rows in the second table. Subsequently, it can be determined that the rows of the first table are the same in number as the rows of the second table and that the matched columns include identical data in the respective ones of the rows. Consequently, a merged table of an aggregation of the columns of the first table and the second table can be generated to exclude from the aggregation one of the matched columns that includes identical data in the respective ones of the rows as the other of the matched columns.

A method for generating an audio file is provided. The method can include receiving a plurality of data entries, wherein each data entry comprises a text portion and converting the text portion of each data entry into a data audio segment, thereby generating a plurality of data audio segments. The method can further include generating, for each data entry in a subset of the plurality of data entries, an introduction audio segment that describes a data entry, thereby producing a plurality of introduction audio segments. The method can further include concatenating the plurality of data audio segments and the plurality of introduction audio segments into a single audio file, wherein each introduction audio segment is positioned in the audio file directly prior to a data audio segment corresponding to the data entry described by the introduction audio segment.
