Lectures and labs with hands-on trainings and project based aspects are of high relevance for courses dedicated to embedded systems design when the transfer of practical skills is a major objective. Therefore, small classes, good support and frequent access to target platforms over a long period of time are beneficial. Providing access to the latter, however, can become a hassle for the organizers, especially when multiple courses are to be held in parallel or when they are organized as asynchronous distance learning courses. The problem is even aggravated when the platforms should be kept at the fore-front of the state-of-the-art. For this purpose we present in this paper concepts and implementation guidelines of a remote lab infrastructure that addresses these issues. In particular, the presented approach keeps the efforts to migrate to new embedded targets simple, enables nearly 24/7 times of access, ideally complements on-site trainings, and keeps the required costs low.Copyright © 2009 by ASME |
