Abstract: Open-source e-learning platforms have lately become an obvious choice whenever an e-learning infrastructure is being designed. Depending on the constraints of the e-learning organization, the best suited one should be selected. This decision is a difficult one, due to the diversity of available platforms. The main goal of this paper is to propose a new method for multiple criteria classification of these software systems, based upon Formal Concept Analysis, namely using conceptual lattices. By means of classification, the paper offers a comprehensive analysis of the features provided by several widely used open-source e-learning platforms. This analysis could support educators in choosing the most suitable platform for particular requirements.

TL;DR: How usability and accessibility requirements can be assured and validated in the whole life cycle of eLearning is presented and the methodologies proposed are applied in three research projects, EU4ALL, ALPE and ADAPTAPlan.
Formal Concept Analysis
TL;DR: FCA explicitly formalises extension and intension of a concept, their mutual relationships, and the fact that increasing intent implies decreasing extent and vice versa, and allows to derive a concept hierarchy from a given dataset.
