Course Infrastructure Automation in University

Abstract

One of the main challenges in university is to create an appropriate operating environment for courses in software engineering and computer science. The teachers have to set up the technologies and tools for the student application to function properly.  This study introduces a categorization of the main processes for automating course infrastructure by identifying user requirements, defining scenarios, and creating an experimental prototype for automation. The prototype is developed and deployed based on server virtualization, and its effectiveness is validated in the learning process. This study contributes to categorizing of administrative processes and enhancing efficiency and security in university course supply.
