In this paper, we propose and implement a system resource management mechanism(content caching to the local site nearby the learners and admission control for learner accesses) in a distributed web-based E-Learning platform, Asian-Mind. For good quality of content accessing, the continuous media course contents are distributed to the course content servers which are closer to the learners according to the course content access popularity. And for guaranteeing the learning quality, learning accesses are admitted by the admission control mechanism in Asian-Mind. Currently, Asian-Mind is successfully used as the network learning platform in the two campuses(Taipei campus and KaoHsiung campus) of Shih-Chien University, Fu-Jen University, and Hi-Net(the largest Internet service provider in Taiwan for the home users). Twenty-four E-learning courses are now available.
