D2.1 Integrated Roadmap

Deliverable 2.1 – The Integrated Roadmap – summarises the first 18 months of requirements gathering and analysis in the TENCompetence project. The document consists of a summary description and a number of annexes with detailed results. The methodology chosen by the project is the Unified Process, supplemented with scenario-based software development techniques. On the basis of initial scenario’s and specific use cases, six high-level use cases were identified that summarise the future functionality of the TENCompetence integrated system. These high-level use cases build on the domain model that is also included. The four main components of the TENCompetence project, i.e. (a) the high-level use cases, (b) the domain model, (c) the project objectives and (d) the experimental setup of the pilots were then critically analysed in order to identify possible gaps between them. On the basis of this gap analysis, some recommendations were formulated for the next development cycles. On the basis of all the work in the four components and the gap analysis, detailed extended use cases with activity diagrams and a data model were developed and formulated, which again serve as the basis for the first version of the integrated system, the Personal Competence Manager. Finally, the document describes the future of the requirements process in the form of a research roadmap, and a detailed procedure for handling change requests to the integrated system.The work on this publication has been sponsored by the TENCompetence Integrated Project that is funded by the European Commission's 6th Framework Programme, priority IST/Technology Enhanced Learning.

Integration of Heterogeneous Information Sources into a Knowledge Resource Management System for Lifelong Learning

Abstract: Access to learning information is still restricted due to the lack of technical and semantic interoperability, locking in learning resources in disconnected islands. A successful environment for competence development and lifelong learning must be built on top of an infrastructure that maximizes the amount of information available, integrating centralized repositories and user desktop resources as well as emergent new applications. This paper describes the vision and current efforts of the TENCompetence project towards this goal as well as current collaboration with other initiatives like those being performed by ARIADNE, describing the requirements and challenges towards developing such an integrative knowledge resource management system on the repository layer as well as on the service layer
