Abstract

A new paradigm of thinking pertaining to a novel holistic intelligent campus (iCampus) environment is proposed, in this paper, in order to enrich and enhance, as well as to transform, the end-to-end learning lifecycle of a knowledge ecosystem. Analogous to the different functions of a biological brain, the central digital nervous system of the campus is comprised of various different interconnected functional intelligences. Each of these intelligent areas is set to perform its specified functional role in a dynamic and coherent inter- and intra-integrative manner within the environment itself. A generalized roadmap has also been devised to encapsulate the concept from within an existing or a new campus setting. Note that the nature of the iCampus proposition is inherently multi-disciplinary and has multi-applicability to other forms of intelligent environment. To capture part of the essence of the concept, some of the key challenges pertinent to the iCampus ecosystem have also been highlighted within the campus value proposition framework.
