Abstract

This paper deals with the usage of a remote laboratory as a platform for integrating learning into engineering education. It also shows a concept and partial implementation results of a remote laboratory for designing automation systems. Advantages and disadvantages of such a system are elaborated from the didactical, technological and economical point of view and accordingly, their results are presented. Also, an overview of simulation and implementation results is included.. Finally, directions for future work and an on-line application have been outlined.
