Monitoring experiments using mobile devices

Abstract

Nowadays most of people have smartphones which can run complex application. Some kinds of experiments need several hours to finish. Using recent mobiles capabilities, anyone can monitor instruments and equipment efficiently from anywhere. Hence, alert services can prevent users from any incidence on supervised instruments and experiments. In this paper a new monitoring mechanism is proposed for the supervision of an experiment by improving the reception of messages in any case using mobile devices. Finally, a practice case of the implemented mechanism is presented for Android mobiles.
