Abstract :
Courses in science and engineering usually require that students must perform practical experiments and assignments in labs to enrich their knowledge and skills. Recently, remote labs provide a new way of implementing traditional labs by allowing lab equipment to be used by students from a distance through the Internet. Unfortunately, the implementation of a specific remote lab is not generic and cannot be reused for another experimental setup. In this paper, it will be shown how we can implement a reusable remote lab devoted to different types of scientific and engineering experiments. Moreover, it is designed in such a way that it relieves an experiment designer while building an experiment setup.
