Abstract :
To transplant the six characteristics of traditional collaborative learning into the network collaborative learning environment, this paper proposes the design of an Internet collaborative learning system with embedded load-balancing brokers. To express the six characteristics through Internet collaborative learning, this research uses access grid tools and remote control parameter delivering technology to design the structure of the system, and integrate traditional elements to create a Web-based collaborative learning environment based around documentation, video conferences or 3D virtual sets. In order to save the cost of system building, the proposed embedded load-balancing brokers are applied to replace the higher-cost servers
