3D Library Visit: Using Second Life To Research Everyday Problems

I found this article that may be of interest to the Library Group, and also to any of our class looking at business education applications. European college students are also having classes with SL elements.

The computer science students in the article treated the library checkout process to a systems analysis for using RFID to track and control the collection at an SL version of a conventional library.

The article closes by making connections between that class and the potential for teaching other logistics and supply chain management courses that can benefit from simulations.
