    Exemplar driven development of software product lines
    (Elsevier, 2012-12-01) Heradio Gil, Rubén; Fernández Amoros, David José; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Abad Cardiel, Ismael
    The benefits of following a product line approach to develop similar software systems are well documented. Nevertheless, some case studies have revealed significant barriers to adopt such approach. In order to minimize the paradigm shift between conventional software engineering and software product line engineering, this paper presents a new development process where the products of a domain are made by analogy to an existing product. Furthermore, this paper discusses the capabilities and limitations of different techniques to implement the analogy relation and proposes a new language to overcome such limitations.

    New generation virtual and remote laboratories : integration into web environments 2.0 with learning management systems
    (Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (España). Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería Informática. Departamento de Informática y Automática, 2013-06-27) Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Sánchez Moreno, José; Dormido Bencomo, Sebastián
    Learning Management Systems (LMS) are software for web applications oriented for the administration, documentation, tracking, and reporting of e-learning programs. Moodle is a free source LMS with more than 63 million users, which makes it the most used LMS around the world. Like some other LMS, the stated philosophy of Moodle includes a constructivist and social constructionist approach to education, emphasizing that learners (and not just teachers) can contribute to the educational experience. This is the web 2.0 applied to education. Easy Java Simulations (EJS) is an authoring tool written in Java that helps to create interactive simulations in Java, mainly for teaching and learning purposes. By means of this tool, instructors can easily create virtual and/or (if they also use the appropriate additional software) remote laboratories. While virtual laboratories are based on mathematical models, remote ones use real equipment and so, the experiments are carried out in the reality. Virtual and remote laboratories (created with EJS, for example) as well as LMS (Moodle, for example) offer different but fundamental educational tools to both teachers and students. Since these resources are complementary (and not mutually exclusive), e-learning programs should offer both kinds of tools to be considered a complete experience for students. However, the integration between these two different resources is still an open issue that must be addressed. This thesis gathers together the two previous resources and provides the necessary tools and methodology for developing web experimentation portals (such as UNEDLabs, also presented here) that can offer e-learning programs based on: 1) experimentation (thanks to the use of the virtual and remote laboratories) and 2) theory documentation provision, social interactivity and easy management (thanks to the use of a LMS). Moreover, the presented tools and methodology allow people not specialized in these particular topics (such as they are the vast majority of the teachers) to easily create these kind of experimentation portals and populate them with virtual and/or remote laboratories (VRLs). Four new Moodle plug-ins facilitate this task: EJSApp, EJSApp Booking System, EJSApp Files Browser and EJSApp Collab Sessions. Nowadays, UNEDLabs holds two courses (among others); one in Control Engineering and another one in Physics. Both of them offer three experiments which are all available in the two possible versions: virtual and remote. The Physics course is still growing and new experiments are added every year. Right now, the three available ones are a motorized rotatory laser for studying the light in isotropic media, a motorized optical bench for determining the focal length of a thin lens, and an experiment with three springs and related to Hookes law. Thanks to the tools presented in this work, not only all the EJS laboratories in UNEDLabs are added and integrated into the Moodle web portal in a very easy and natural way, but they also acquire several special functionalities they lack when they are used outside this LMS. The first of these functionalities is the capability of saving and/or loading files to/from the private files repository in Moodle. The second one is the possibility to create collaborative experimental sessions with other users of Moodle who are enrolled to the course the EJS lab belongs to. The third one is an automatic integration with a booking system specifically designed for managing users access to the remote laboratories. Finally, EJS labs in Moodle can be administrated exactly in the same way as any other Moodle resource or activity, meaning they can be updated or deleted; their access can be restricted to a certain group of users or to users that have previously fulfilled some steps or conditions; security copies are automatically performed during Moodles system backups, etc.

    Customized Online Laboratory Experiments: A General Tool and Its Application to the Furuta Inverted Pendulum [Focus on Education]
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-09-17) Galán Vicente, Daniel; Chaos García, Dictino; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Heradio Gil, Rubén
    Because of online laboratories (labs), students can perform experimental activities from their mobile devices and/or computers. This article proposes an experimentation environment (EE) that extends the capabilities of interactive online labs with scripting language support. Thus, control engineering students can specify complex experiments, avoid routine tasks, and empirically test controllers they made themselves.

    The Ball and Beam System: A Case Study of Virtual and Remote Lab Enhancement With Moodle
    (IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), 2015-06-10) Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Guinaldo Losada, María; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    Web-based labs are key tools for distance education that help to illustrate scientific phenomena, which require costly or difficult-to-assemble equipment. Easy Java Simulations (EJS) is an authoring tool that speeds up the creation of these kind of labs. An excellent proof of the EJS potential is the open source physics (OSP) repository, which hosts hundreds of free EJS labs. Learning management systems, such as Moodle, provide social contexts where students interact with each other. The work described in this paper looks for the synergy of both tools, EJS and Moodle, by supporting the deployment of EJS labs into Moodle and thus enriching them with social features (e.g., chat, forums, and videoconference). To test this approach, the authors have created the ball and beam lab, which helps students of automatic control engineering to train different advanced techniques (robust, fuzzy, and reset control), and compare their performance in relation to a conventional proportional-integral-derivative control.

    Open and Low-Cost Virtual and Remote Labs on Control Engineering
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2015-06-15) Sáenz Valiente, Jacobo; Chacón; Jesús; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Antonio Visioli; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    This paper presents an open course in the University Network of Interactive Laboratories, which offers several virtual and remote laboratories on automatic control, accessible to anyone. All the details on one of these labs (a two electric coupled drives system that allows performing control practices in a 2 × 2 MIMO system with industrial applications) and the activities that can be performed with it are given. We use a low-cost solution for developing the virtual and remote labs shared in this open course, based on the use of a free authoring tool Easy Java/Javascript Simulations (EJsS) for building the laboratories' user interfaces and a cheap development platform board (BeagleBone Black). The virtual and remote labs are deployed into a free Learning Management System (Moodle) Web environment that facilitates their management and maintenance.

    The photoelectric effect and study of the diffraction of light: Two new experiments in UNILabs virtual and remote laboratories network
    (Società Italiana di Fisica, 2016-02-12) Sánchez Fernández, Juan Pedro; Sáenz Valiente, Jacobo; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Carreras, Carmen; Yuste, Manuel; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    This work describes two experiments: “study of the diffraction of light: Fraunhofer approximation” and “the photoelectric effect”. Both of them count with a virtual, simulated, version of the experiment as well as with a real one which can be operated remotely. The two previous virtual and remote labs (built using Easy Java(script) Simulations) are integrated in UNILabs, a network of online interactive laboratories based on the free Learning Management System Moodle. In this web environment, students can find not only the virtual and remote labs but also manuals with related theory, the user interface description for each application, and so on.

    Assisted Creation and Deployment of Javascript Remote Experiments
    (International Federation of Engineering Education Societies, 2016-09-28) Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Faustino Andrade, Tiago; Sousa, Pedro; Sanchez, Jose; Restivo, Maria Teresa
    In order to disseminate and encourage the use of remote experiments, their creation and deployment need to be simplified. This work presents a method to easily develop remote experiments interfaces in Javascript and to quickly embed them in Moodle. This solution requires the use of Easy Java/Javascript Simulations for the development of the interfaces and the EJSApp Moodle plugin to deploy them in the web platform. The proven flexibility of such solution has fostered the integration of two new experiments and also the easy adaptation of an already existing one, opening new remote labs flexibility to educational and/or training activi- ties.

    Virtual and Remote Labs in Control Education: a Survey
    (Elsevier, 2016-11-14) Heradio Gil, Rubén; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    Virtual and remote labs have been around for almost twenty years and while they have been constantly gaining popularity since their appearance, there are still many people in the control education community who either do not know many details about them or do not know them at all. What are their benefits? Which examples of virtual and remote labs for control education can be found in the Internet and how spread and popular are they? What are the current trends and issues in the implementation and deployment of these tools? And the future ones? These and others are some of the questions we answer in this paper, trying to bring the attention of the control education community to these tools which, we believe, are meant to have an increasing importance and relevance for the 21st century students.

    What remote labs can do for you
    (AIP Publishing, 2016-04-01) Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Sánchez Fernández, Juan Pedro; Dormido Canto, Sebastián
    The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical devices connected to the internet. Online connections enable users to remotely monitor the devices and their surroundings or to actively control them through sensors and actuators. As the technology has progressed, the importance of the IoT has grown tremendously. According to the McKinsey Global Institute, the IoT’s annual economic impact could reach $11 trillion by 2025. That figure represents about 10% of today’s world economy.1 Bullish sounding at first, the prediction is not so ridiculous if one stops to think about how deeply internet technologies have already penetrated today’s society. Consider, for example, mobile devices—those smartphones and tablets everybody carries nowadays. A typical modern smartphone has numerous sensors that allow it to capture the device’s orientation, location, ambient light conditions, and much more. And it is frequently connected to the internet. A world filled with such internet-connected devices opens...
