Universities have a great importance to every nation and their significance cannot be minimized. Generating of a bright students and future recourses are the main purpose of the universities. Almost in every country, governments spend huge amount of budget to upgrade the condition of university in every year either by constructing new ones or employ good faculties at any cost. However, in spite of this good effort by the governments, sometimes the main purpose go in vein, i.e., it is seen often that only the amount gets spent, but no benefit at all. In this paper, authors will discuss the causes of the aforesaid problems and give a model architecture of university education system using cloud computing. Making of a private cloud to each university and covering all the colleges, institutions under that university's private-cloud would be a nice and cost-saving endeavor. Using the proposed model, not only the government will be benefitted having spent comparatively lower cost to universities, but also the quality of education system would be raised undoubtedly to some extent. Authors are also giving the comparison to the existing and the proposed model and thus showing that proposed model would be well suited at this critical time.

Abstract


Universities have a great importance to every nation and their significance cannot be minimized. Generating of a bright students and future recourses are the main purpose of the universities. Almost in every country, governments spend huge amount of budget to upgrade the condition of university in every year either by constructing new ones or employ good faculties at any cost. However, in spite of this good effort by the governments, sometimes the main purpose go in vein, i.e., it is seen often that only the amount gets spent, but no benefit at all. In this paper, authors will discuss the causes of the aforesaid problems and give a model architecture of university education system using cloud computing. Making of a private cloud to each university and covering all the colleges, institutions under that university's private-cloud would be a nice and cost-saving endeavor. Using the proposed model, not only the government will be benefitted having spent comparatively lower cost to universities, but also the quality of education system would be raised undoubtedly to some extent. Authors are also giving the comparison to the existing and the proposed model and thus showing that proposed model would be well suited at this critical time.
