“…One of the main features of simulators is their interactive capability. Interactive simulations are quickly gaining importance as a means to explore, comprehend and communicate complex ideas [12]- [13]. Interactive simulators can be implemented using a combination of computers, high-resolution graphics, simulation programming languages, and an Internet connection.…”

-Virtual Laboratories are an indispensable space for developing practical activities in a Virtual Environment. In the field of Computer and Software Engineering different types of practical activities have to be performed in order to obtain basic competences which are impossible to achieve by other means. This paper specifies an ontology for a general virtual laboratory. The proposed ontology provides a mechanism to select the best resources needed in a Virtual Laboratory once a specific practical activity has been defined and the main competences that students have to achieve in the learning process have been fixed. Furthermore, the proposed ontology can be used to develop an automatic and wizard tool that creates a Moodle Classroom using the practical activity specification and the related competences.

“…It is worthy to note what is reported in [8]; a study is conducted to evaluate remote labs and hands-on labs. This study claims that 90% of students see the remote lab as effective as or even better than the hands-on.…”

“…the addition of new remote labs should not require any modification to the core modules, or worse, the architecture. As reported in many remote labs, the complexity associated with developing new remote labs or even maintaining existent remote labs is one of the major obstacles to the wide spread of remote labs [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. 2.…”

Abstract-This paper describes a flexible and scalable architecture of remote laboratories developed for students for experimentation in educational institutions, research labs and technology companies. The framework and procedures for multi-remote labs environment are explained. The development of the lab client software as a Rich Internet Application (RIA) is described. The utilization of low-cost hardware and software packages to provide the interface to the labs equipment is shown, and the deployment of Web Services as the communication medium between the Lab Server and the Lab Client is presented. A case study for a remote lab, the Microcontroller Kit Remote IDE, was carried out. Any student can connect to the remote lab and performs each experiment while watching the equipment during execution via a webcam feed. The whole lab is accessible from any PC connected to the internet.
