    Dynamic reconfiguration in FPAA for technical and nontechnical education in a global environment
    (Wiley, 2021) Macho Aroca, Alejandro; García Teruel, Manuel; García Loro, Félix; Baizan, Pablo; Blázquez Merino, Manuel; Sancristobal Ruiz, Elio; Díaz Orueta, Gabriel; Gil Ortego, Rosario; Castro Gil, Manuel Alonso; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3978-0692; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5454-456X; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5445-2377; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0117-8794; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6462-9196; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2102-977X
    Some engineering concepts have been proven to be very important not only in engineering degrees but in several areas. This knowledge is difficult to grasp under certain circumstances, and sometimes prior training is needed. This is a special challenge in full or part remote education. Simulations may help in this area, but truly experimental lab practices are crucial to grasp all the required knowledge and not only for fundamental information but for complex or indirect knowledge, where students can apply what they have learnt in classes. In this paper, we have worked on a concept to help professors and students to get new concepts in a more time-efficient and safe manner, using dynamic reconfiguration in Field-Programmable Analog Array. This solution can be easily applied to traditional or remote labs in less time than usual practices, so students can learn more in the same amount of time, especially when time is a constraint.

    Overview of embedded systems to build reliable and safe ADAS and AD systems
    (IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers), 2020-02) Belmonte, Francisco J; Martín Gutiérrez, Sergio; Sancristobal, Elio; Ruipérez Valiente, José A.; Castro Gil, Manuel Alonso
    Automotive industry is a key sector in developed countries, taking advantage from Electronic and Semiconductor industries, for which this work is focused on, including an overview of embedded systems and related technologies for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) development, end user applications and their implementation (SoCs, Application Processors-APs, MCUs, software and boards), manufacturers solutions, architectures, trends and other aspects (like methodologies) to improve functional safety, reliability and performances. The current status to permit the transition from ADAS to Autonomous Driving (AD) systems and Self-Driving Cars (SDC) is also explored.

    Smart Grid: Assessment of the past and present in developed and developing countries
    (ELSEVIER, 2017) Ponce Jara, Marcos Antonio; Ruiz Larrocha, Elena; Gil Ortego, Rosario; San Cristóbal Ruiz, Elio; Pérez Molina, Clara María; Castro Gil, Manuel Alonso; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4450-4740
    The modern struggle to generate electricity reducing our dependence on fossil fuels and decreasing greenhouse gas emissions has found an ally in Smart Grid technology. This new trend involves a renewed perspective on how to generate, transmit, distribute and manage electricity networks, which not only helps to reduce power demand and cost, but can also improve efficiency, reliability, quality and security. This paper aims to study comprehensively the Smart Grid power system by comparing experiences and success stories from around the world. Developed countries, like the United States and those in the European Union, and developing countries, like India and Brazil, have been taken as examples of the current development and state of the Smart Grid concept. Europe and the U.S. lead the development of Smart Grids systems, while Brazil and India strongly depend on foreign technology and investment for their development in their countries. Climate change represents an extra challenge for developing countries, in addition to other issues related to economic and social advancement. Nevertheless, Smart Grids offer an array of possibilities and opportunities that work towards climate change international goals. However, state motivations and national energy resources limit the advancement of Smart Grids on this matter.

    European Robotics Week to introduce robotics and promote engineering
    (Wiley, 2018-06-28) Plaza, Pedro; Sancristobal, Elio; Carro Fernandez, German; García Loro, Félix; Blázquez Merino, Manuel; Castro Gil, Manuel Alonso; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2028-5309
    We present an activity framed within the European Robotics Week event. Robotics and computational practice are ideal tools for developing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) pedagogy. A modular and adaptive hands-on workshop is described in detail. The workshop is based on multiplatform educational robotics content as a first step into the robotics world. Three educational tools are used to introduce examples of robotics applications. The operational details, materials, and examples of activities for selected modules are presented with the expectation that all teachers can adapt these activities to their classes. Despite the small number of students, the experience delivered results that might be useful for other instructors to promote workshops with similar or identical content to generate further benefits. This study demonstrates that it is important to combine theory and practice and include fun tasks that intertwine the challenges of applying theory to problem solving. Furthermore, the results show how the same content can be deployed using three different robotics education tools.

    Gender comparative research on learning strategies applying the cognitive-motor model methodology and VISIR remote lab
    (Wiley, 2019-06-28) Blázquez Merino, Manuel; Plaza, Pedro; López-Rey García-Rojas, África; Sancristobal, Elio; Albert Gómez, María José; Castro Gil, Manuel Alonso
    The research work hereby presented shows some findings about the different ways used by girls and boys, at secondary school, to assimilate the electricity concepts and electric magnitudes to be able to design and assemble electric circuits. The methodology applied to learning, the cognitive-motor model (CMM), is also presented, and it is based on the mutual interaction of cognitive skills and motor capabilities. Students have followed a specific course designed under CMM specifications. The course contains a combination of theoretical activities and practical tasks by means of which cognitive and motor skills have been measured. To carry out the practical tasks, the Virtual Instrument Systems in a reality remote lab have been used by students as the technical resource. In the study, different learning strategies between male and female students, what affects each gender effectiveness, and learning performance have been found.

    Vulnerability Assessment of Learning Management Systems
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2023-03-21) San Cristóbal Ruiz, Elio; Pastor Vargas, Rafael; Gil Ortego, Rosario; Meier, Russ; Saliah-Hassane, Hamadou; Castro Gil, Manuel Alonso
    This paper presents a vulnerability assessment of a class of web applications designed to serve educational coursework to online users. We describe the deployment landscape, the known vulnerabilities institutions must be aware of, and document how non-supervised deployment puts institutions at risk from cybercriminals.
