Abstract

A user friendly and straightforwardly extendable Web-based simulator of communication chains is presented. Without any need of license or installation, the simulator can be used for e-learning or e-research through a conventional Internet browser supporting Java plug-ins. Devices and connections can be freely inserted, moved and removed by simple mouse dragging. Merely by moving the mouse on the desired connection point, the corresponding signal is displayed enabling therefore easy debugging and user´s assistance. Moreover, the simulator is designed to enable forward extension of the platform by easily adding new generic devices regardless of their degree of complexity
