Labicom.net — Putting your laboratory online in less than five minutes with WebPager tool: Automatic generation and real-time control of a LabVIEW based laboratory server from pluginless HTML page

Most of currently existing laboratory servers of remote labs were built fully or partially with LabVIEW programming language from National Instruments. While proving to be the best tool for fast development of excellent SCADA and data acquisition applications, it appeared to be inadequate when it comes to deploying an application to the web. This paper and accompanying demonstration will show the tools that were used for accomplishing this task in the remote laboratories presented in other papers. The focus of this demonstration will be on WebPager tool from Labicom.net online laboratories platform. It will be shown that LabVIEW application serving as laboratory server can easily be deployed on the standard pluginless Web-page without any modifications in LabVIEW code with WebPager. Programming knowledge of any other language is not required. Automatically generated HTML5 pages of a modern look and real-time user interaction will be displayed. A few different LabVIEW front panels will be converted into web-pages in the course of demonstration.
