Abstract: The loose coupling relation between components of a students portal at a university is an essential concept to reduce the dependency between these components on each others, and to increase the reusability of these components. This loose coupling feature can be achieved by applying the distribution and interoperability between the components of the students’ portal. A recent research has redefined the students’ portal framework and included distribution between the framework components to support the reusability of these components, while no researches have been done to evaluate this framework that has distributed interoperable components. This paper evaluates involving distribution and interoperability in the students portal framework using case study approach. The evaluation results have proved efficiency of components’ distribution and interoperability of the students portal framework
