Abstract :
In this paper, a World Wide Web-based tool for the remote definition and analysis of optimization problems in electromagnetic design is described. The tool can find effective applications both in advanced teaching and in industrial design activities, thanks to its user-friendliness. The architecture of the system and its current implementation, based on commonly available tools, are presented and discussed in detail. Examples of the use of the tool for the design of a magnet to be used in high energy physics experiments and a simple electromagnetic actuator are given
