Abstract: The present E-Learning systems primarily aim at efficiently providing educational content in multiple forms to distant students. Our solution handles the major issues in doing this and reduces the communication gap between the E-Learning content and students. It allows realizing the full potential of E-Learning content and methodologies. The coherent set of systems presented here complements the traditional learning scenarios. The first system is a bandwidth efficient lecture video delivery framework that uses the previous knowledge of presence of special content in lecture videos to automatically separate the content and encodes it strategically to fit into the current available network bandwidth. This system complements a traditional classroom lecture session. The second system primarily focuses on E-Learning courses where holding various subject related labs can enhance the practical understanding of the subject material. The aim is to simulate a real life competitive laboratory environment as closely as possible. The framework provides instructor friendly features like remote monitoring of lab, effective evaluation and grading methodology along with student friendly features like remote login and problem resolution through effective help from the teacher. The system is built on a bandwidth efficient, client-server model based backend system. The third system allows real-time subtitling and annotation of videos in multiple languages. It also allows the users to edit subtitles and annotations in an existing video. The system is highly beneficial for people who do not know global languages and people with hearing disabilities. The lecture delivery system and the Multilingual Subtitling and Annotation system have been developed in C++ using different libraries for various image processing and streaming functions. The Remote Lab system is based on an efficient client-server model developed in Java.
