The MIT iLab Shared Architecture (ISA) is widely used to support remote experimentation, providing basic functionalities such as users management, scheduling, access control and results storage. This paper addresses the optimization of LabVIEW-based RE's creation under ISA, with the standardization of common lab server functionalities and communications. The Experiment Lab Server Architecture (ELSA), created as an ISA extension, fulfills the requirements of an ISA process agent and uses web services to connect the client with the lab server. ELSA automatically manages the initial definition and runtime traffic of experiment-specific input/output parameters. Once the experiment and client codes are created, RE configuration, startup and operation can be easily accomplished. In a pilot implementation using ELSA, the web services mediation of data transfer performed at rates high enough for a smooth user interaction experience. ELSA web services approach allows for a loose coupling in RE design and can effectively shorten its development cycle.
MIT iLab共享架构(ISA)被广泛用于支持远程实验，提供基本功能，如用户管理、调度、访问控制和结果存储。本文讨论了ISA下基于labview的RE创建的优化，以及通用实验室服务器功能和通信的标准化。作为ISA扩展创建的实验实验室服务器体系结构(ELSA)满足了ISA流程代理的需求，并使用web服务将客户机与实验室服务器连接起来。ELSA自动管理实验特定输入/输出参数的初始定义和运行时流量。一旦实验和客户端代码被创建，可重构配置，启动和操作可以很容易地完成。在使用ELSA的试验实现中，数据传输的web服务中介以足够高的速率执行，以获得平滑的用户交互体验。ELSA web服务方法允许RE设计中的松耦合，并且可以有效地缩短其开发周期。

The use of high accuracy positioning systems provides endless possibilities for the development of remote laboratories. The remote laboratory presented in this paper allows full control of a microscope over a surface by the use of a Cartesian positioning system. The arrangement of multiple samples over the accessible surface by the lens so far as the provision of a rich graphical user interface will allow secondary school students to carry multiple experiments in biology, physics and chemistry through internet.

This paper presents the extensions added to the measurement and monitoring tool TestelDroid, to support remote control and instrumentation of Android devices. The extensions include support for Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments (SCPI), cOntrol and Management Framework (OMF) and OMF Measurement Library (OML). SCPI is the most widespread interface for measurement equipment control in many areas, for example, electronics or telecommunications. On the other hand, the support of technologies like OMF and OML provides powerful orchestration framework languages which reduces the time required to define experiments.

Paper demonstrates remote control of thermo-optical plant via Android based mobile application. The user can run the experiment in an open or closed loop. The plant control is realized via predefined PID controller whose parameters can be changed. Another possibility is to use own customized controller whereby the control algorithm has to be defined using the syntax of SciLab environment that is running in background of the whole experiment.

Deploying remote laboratories at a large scale is the next challenge in remote experimentation. It is referred as Massive Open Online Labs (MOOLs). Being able to sustain a massive number of users accessing a specific resource concurrently is a complex task. This paper presents technical solutions, currently deployed, to implement such a remote lab in a MOOC. The control system lab deployed in edX, where more that 200 students access concurrently a farm of 20 electrical drives, is used as an example. Gamification mechanisms which accommodate even more students are proposed.

Remote Laboratories are software and hardware solutions that enable users to access real equipment located somewhere else on the Internet. These are typically applied in education, in various fields (including electronics, physics, biology, robotics, chemistry, etc.), and there is ongoing research on many of its aspects: laboratories in each field, user perception by students or teachers, management systems and integration in external technologies, etc.

Universities and educational organizations or institutions, when designing any electronics course, trust in experimentation through laboratory practices in order to build successful cross-curricular capabilities and capacities. In electronics courses there is a need to have practical experiences, the benefits of electronics laboratory practices are widely known for professionals and necessary for any person who seeks for a broad comprehension of the real-time performance beyond the ideal modelling. Therefore, when designing any electronics course, the laboratory practices are one of the basis on which the learning is established. New areas of application outside the University, regarding informal education, long-life learning or Senior education are everyday more attractive for users, students and teacher, as well as the increasing importance of STEM education in medium and high schools bring new areas of use of the remote instrumentation and laboratories as well as new software/virtual tools and apps. Nowadays, there is an extensive variety for providing theoretical contents in on-line learning (videos, documents, tutorials, scaffolding activities, peer-to-peer reviews, forums, etc.) to students, using traditional digital media (Learning Objects or Open CourseWare) as well as less traditional media as MOOCs (or variations as SPOCs or MOOLs). These tools, by an efficiently and appropriate selection from professors and use from students, can complement or replace successfully face-to-face education, as well as student-to-student support using the principle of peer-to-peer collaboration is highly increasing. The use of remote laboratories, virtual laboratories, MOOCs environment as well as new on-line learning applications are the key of this Special Session inside the REV 2016 conference.

The goal of this workshop is to introduce open modular hardware and software system "iSES Remote Lab SDK" (iSES - internet School Experimental Studio) designed for easy creation of real remotely controlled laboratories (RCL) that are accessible from PC, tablets and mobile phones. Open modular system iSES Remote Lab SDK consists of approx. 20 freely distributable JavaScript objects in commented source code. Widgets are highly configurable and provide many well documented options and allow to build a complex measurement and control interface with data and video transfer. Open modular system iSES Remote Lab SDK can communicate with different measurement platforms (ISES, Arduino are ready; CMA CoachLab, Vernier etc. are tested), and also common universal measurement devices with a COM or USB port, further universal rotation and linear motion stepper motors, etc.). We will demonstrate our 18 online advanced remote labs accessible at www.ises.info. All participants of the workshop will receive a fully functional lite version of the iSES Remote Lab SDK for Arduino-Uno so they can try to control a physics experiment remotely, download data and process it. Any user may have an access to the RCL on PC and mobile devices (iPad, smart phone, etc.) as well. The workshop participants will build and test several Arduino-Uno Remote experiments by putting selected components of the iSES Remote Lab SDK together, which includes assembling both hardware and software components in a custom way so that any user can control the experiment remotely. Even non-programmers can build up a simple RCL and publish it in 15 minutes on the Internet! We introduce a new measurement system ISES-LAN which is based on Internet of Things.
