We face the process of High Quality Accreditation in two ways: one involving large amount of information (big data), including issues as: self evaluation, high quality, statistics, indicators, surveys, field work (process engineering), during several periods of time. The other one is related to information contained about High Quality: which involved the development of an intelligent architecture...
In 2011 we introduced an elective course on Parallel Processing into the ECE undergraduate curricula. UTN Bahía Blanca was one of the first Universities in Argentina that decided to teach OpenCL. During the same year, we also began participation in the NSF/IEEE TCCP 2011 Early Adopters Program. This work summarizes the lessons we learned in our endeavor of teaching parallel and distributed computing...
Implementation of a sophisticated ERP system into a heterogeneous academic environment like universities is far from being a trivial task. The question of integration as a serious risk factor should not be neglected. That is why strategic planning of the integrated business-information system (IBIS) have a crucial importance as a link between academic strategy and business strategy.
This paper proposes a comprehensive and integrated roadmap for the implementation of an enterprise architecture framework in the higher education institutions of Ecuador with the purpose to get the best utilization of the resources of IT (to improve the quality of the services, to rationalize the technical administration and to finance the assets of IT, and to improve the management of the resources...

The opportunity this connectivity...
A Knowledge based system model to face the new methodological strategy on Higher Education in Colombia is presented: the propaedeutic cycles. A great challenge is presented to Superior Education Institutions: to establish the link between traditional cycles: technical, technology and professional ones with the secondary, basic and media levels. Our solution is presented linking each phase with a propedaeutic...
Each university is mainly interested in improving higher education and this holds true both at national and international level. At first sight the activities within a university may seem simple, but in reality they are very complex and dynamic, including a wide range of domains and problems. We have to deal with virtual university campuses, virtual professional communities, virtual collaborative...
This paper describes an application of a game development framework (GDF) - Microsoft XNA in software architecture (SA) course at Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) and evaluates how well the GDF is to use and integrate in a software engineering (SE) course. The result of the evaluation is based on the questionnaire with 9 types of general questions related to SE learning. In most...
