Abstract

Learning Management Systems (LMS) have acquired importance in schools and business training. The increase in the use of mobile devices has led to many users attempting to access LMS from devices for which these systems and their contents were not designed. Also, mobile devices contain various features in their interaction media and there are no standards for these. This variety of features changes from the type of display, keyboard and sensors, to operating systems. A natural task to mobile device users would be to access any LMS in a simple, effective and efficient way from any mobile device. Besides that developers won't have to write native applications for each mobile platform and each version. An appropriate solution to these problems is to apply a middleware-based architecture. This paper presents an analysis of the functionality of LMS focused onstudent role users using different mobile devices.
