Time Scheduling Schemes in Online Laboratory Management Systems
TLDR
Some of the possible methods for scheduling of online experiments which may be integrated in online laboratory management systems for optimized resource utilization are discussed.Abstract:
Online remotely-controlled educational laboratories are increasingly being deployed in many universities around the world. As hardware-based remote experiment can only be used by one person or a group of persons at a time, for proper utilization of the resources, an efficient time scheduling scheme is essential. In this work, we discuss some of the possible methods for scheduling of online experiments which may be integrated in online laboratory management systems for optimized resource utilization.read more
