Development of remote laboratories in academic settings has been held back because the lack standardization technology, processes, operation and their integration with formal educational environments. Remote are used for a variety reasons, instance, when equipment is not available physical laboratory; laboratory space sufficient to, either, set up experiments or permit access to all on-site students course; teacher needs provide online experiences taking courses via distance education....

Background: A study was conducted in the locality of El Fuerte (Santa Bárbara Department, Jujuy Province, Argentina). The objectives this work were to (1) document ethnospecies plants used by local people, (2) understand their consensus for use and utilitarian versatility, (3) determine harvesting sites, (4) assess availability based on perceptions. Methods: Open semi-structured interviews 11 collaborators, along with free listing, participant observation species identification field....

Remote Laboratories are used in educational settings as tools to give students access experiments that not physically available them at their institutions. During implementation, problems such as: bandwidth, security or limitations terms of the usability, have been identified. This paper proposes an approach integrates, what we call, a Smart Adaptive Laboratory (SARL) with Virtual Learning Environments (VLE) improve students' experience by automatically adapting according student's current...

One of the main concerns in development remote laboratories academic settings has been lack standardization terms technology, processes, operation and aspects related to their integration with formal educational environments. Remote are used a variety situations, for instance, when equipment is not available physical laboratory, physically laboratory space sufficient either set up experiments or permit access all students course, teacher wants provide experiences taking courses via distance...

Digital Twins (DT) are software systems representing different aspects of a physical or conceptual counterpart---the real twin, which is instrumented with several sensors computing devices that generate, consume and transfer data to its DT purposes. In other words, are, large extent, IoT-intensive systems. Indeed, by exploiting managing IoT data, artificial intelligence, big simulation capabilities, DTs have emerged as promising approach manage the virtual manifestation real-world entities...

One of the main causes desertion in engineering programs is poor student academic performance basic courses. these courses Statics, which taught at undergraduate level. Between 2009 and 2011 about 30% students did not get a satisfactory grade to pass course high percentage deserted from their program EAFIT University.

Digital twins (DTs) will enable the long-anticipated convergence between physical and virtual worlds. This disruptive augment operations services that are traditionally constrained to spaces with new virtual-based capabilities. Nevertheless, achieving this point its full extent demand DTs increased autonomy enhanced ability monitor, reason about, react upon relevant phenomena. article discusses pivotal research advances toward realization of autonomic cooperative DTs. We elaborate on...

Recent advances in technology have allowed the development of laboratory experiments that do not require physical presence a student laboratory. These are conducted using internet, simulation, or actual control and monitoring real equipment located remotely, hybrid both. This allows potential sharing resources could result reduction budgets for equipment, personnel brick-and-mortal space. Remote labs can facilitate offering lab courses online. Besides technical challenges, there safety,...

Digital twins (DTs) mirror and model the characteristics properties of dynamic, real-world entities known as real (RTs). Ensuring delivery consistent reliable RT insights over time demands DTs preserve correspondence with their counterparts, notwithstanding change.

The proliferation of Smart Cyber-Physical Systems (SCPS) is increasingly blurring the boundaries between physical and virtual entities. This trend revolutionizing multiple application domains along whole human activity spectrum, while pushing growth new businesses innovations such as smart manufacturing, cities transportation systems, well personalized healthcare. Technological advances in Internet Things, Big Data, Cloud Computing Artificial Intelligence have effected tremendous progress...

This special session will focus on innovative and disruptive implementations of online labs the challenges their management within educational institution infrastructures. A short presentation a Draft IEEE Standard P1876™ Networked Smart Learning Objects for Online Laboratories also be given. The includes experts in cyber physical laboratory research development area to provide perspectives how these technologies are leveraged support design, development, implementation, ways assessing...

Continuous experimentation enables companies to reduce development risks and operational costs by continuously directly assessing user response with respect software updates. The increasing need for data-driven rapid decisions face unpredictable context situations demands the automation of continuous practices. Furthermore, variable conditions constraints associated process, such as changes in goals cost conducting experimental trials, demand from experiments be adaptive. This paper presents...

Online laboratories help students to perform laboratory assignments from different geographical locations, through the use of internet. A possible configuration is hybrid laboratories, that includes a physical local experiment equipment, and set either virtual or remote components. One issues this type setups how determine whether student really performing lab activities she/he presenting somebody else work. Therefore, it important take all necessary steps keep engaged while preventing...

Abstract Microprocessor Systems Laboratory CEC-322 is a class offered in the programs of Electrical, Computer, and Software Engineering at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Prescott, AZ campus. It includes set laboratory activities which students are asked to implement real applications embedded systems. The topics covered this include microcontroller, Serial Communication, Analog Digital Converters, Timers, Interrupts, Comparators, among others. All these concepts base for creating...

Certain notions of convergence sequences functions such as pointwise, uniform and parts (compact sets or bounded sets) come from suitable topological functional spaces{m/1/}. Under certain conditions these topologies involved are metrizable, which in an advantage since there is extensive theory on metric spaces. However, the case pointwise delicate, it shown that under hypothesis this form not equivalent to metric.

Online learning tools have allowed professors to carry out their classes in an interactive way, synchronic as well asynchronic, giving them the opportunity explore from different points of view specific themes or concepts, achieving greater dynamism through active participation students. This article presents results implementation software tool for massive use designed with objective allowing Engineering students strengthen basic mathematical knowledge improve courses such Calculus I and...
