“…In [2], we presented a novel concept named Mobile Virtual Device (MVD), where a composition of devices is considered as a whole and attempts to facilitate the activity design for M-Learning activities hiding the internal distribution of services among devices (Fig.1). The MVD concept is an attempt to facilitate the conceptualization of a distributed system by non-developer stakeholders, and its composition use by developers.…”

“…These components allow the discovery and share of services along the devices in the organization. As well, the concept points out the need for a component to interpret the activity requirements that would lead to the identification of needed members in the organization [2].…”

“…Three possible scenarios could originate from this search: (1) there is a free agent that could supply the missing service, (2) there is an agent that can provide the service and that is already in another MVD group, and (3) there is no agent that could provide the required service.…”

The use of mobile technologies in education has increased the amount of tools that can be used for pedagogical purposes. However, the introduction of these technologies comes with challenges that require from attention. The first of them is concerning with the limitations that these devices have in features when compared with laptop and desktop computers, naming the screen size, performance and memory space among others. A mechanism to address this limitation can be the combination of multiple devices in groups and share the resources within these groups. The second limitation that this paper addresses is with regard to these devices being prone to failures in relation with their availability, due to its battery life, connectivity, etc. This paper presents a decentralized distributed self-adaptive system that attempts to cover both the limitations in features of these devices, by combining the devices in organizations, named MVD, and the weakness in availability by providing a self-adaptation mechanism. Moreover, the paper presents the identified required components for the creation of a system that provides such benefits and illustrates the internal functionality of the system to provide the self-adaptive quality.

“…However, with the introduction of new mobile information technology [2] and pervasive expansion of wireless technology, these conventional techniques will be replaced the brand-new mobile learning [3]. In recent years, mobile learning is a field which combines mobile computing and electronic learning (e-learning) [3], have provided more interactive and personalized instruction based on the learner's context [4] and learner cognitive profile [5].…”

Process of delivering multimedia learning objects such as text, video, images, audio, and animation requires real-time streaming of multimedia content from the M-learning systems to the mobile users. With enhancing the integration methods of the mobile devices into the learning systems, we have possibility to allow easy storing, recording and delivering of multimedia contents to the students in real-time. In this paper, we will present an intelligent mobile learning (M-learning) system for delivery of multimedia content depending of the context-aware conditions. This paper considers the significance of high QoS requirements for applications that are essential to achieve higher continuity of real-time multimedia contents. In this research, we have considered the best queuing packet delivery algorithm to provide appropriate multimedia contents to improve required bandwidth for user's communications.
