Remigiusz J. Rak, Pawel Pyszlak

Abstract

Virtual Instruments, as well as networked and distributed measurement systems, are the natural tools, which can be used in a modern didactic process for creating virtual laboratories offered by a group of Universities. In the paper the solution of the experimental model of the remote access to the measurement laboratory is presented. The project aims at designing the complete PC-based Virtual Instrument (VI) as a platform for acquisition, processing, presenting and distributing data throughout a global network. Computer network based measurement and automation is dramatically affecting traditional academic research and teaching. It makes researchers more productive, and improves the way students learn.
