ECONOMIC APPROACH TO ENSURE INTEROPERABILITY BETWEEN LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

In this paper, we propose an innovative concept of "Application Service Provider LMS (ASP LMS)" which promotes the opening and the interoperability of the learning management systems (LMS) and the sharing of learning services and resources. The goal of this opening is to make the interaction between systems easier, to facilitate the sharing of resources and services between systems. With the introduction of this economic model this system widens the market of the Open and Distance Learning (ODL).
