Publicación Event-based Control: A Bibliometric Analysis of Twenty Years of Research(IEEE, 2020-03-04) Aranda Escolástico, Ernesto; Guinaldo Losada, María; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Chacón, Jesús; Vargas Oyarzún, Héctor; Sánchez, José; Sánchez Moreno, José; Dormido Canto, SebastiánThe potential benefits of networked control systems are tremendous, as they can be easily upgraded by just including new components (i.e., sensors, actuators, or controllers), avoiding any further modifications to their structure. A critical approach to unleash such potential benefits is event-based control, where the system output turns to be sampled on demand, instead of being sampled constantly at rigid periods of time. This paper analyzes from a bibliometric point of view the literature published for the last twenty years on event-based control, identifying the most relevant articles, authors, institutions, and journals. Moreover, the principal topics, motivations, and problems faced by the researchers are discussed, identifying distinct challenges and opportunities for future research.Publicación Evidence-Based Control Engineering Education: Evaluating the LCSD Simulation Tool(IEEE, 2020-09-25) Marin, Loreto; Vargas, Héctor; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Díaz Martínez, José Manuel; Dormido Canto, SebastiánThe advance in control engineering education needs well-designed studies that validate what methods and tools work best. This paper addresses the lack of empirical evidence supporting innovations in control engineering education by proposing a methodology that works at different abstraction levels. Hence, innovations' impact on students' performance can be statistically analyzed either globally or locally by examining competencies or fine-grained indicators, respectively. The article reports the application of the methodology for evaluating an interactive simulation tool, named LCSD, on 101 students at the Pontifical Catholic University of Valparaiso in Chile. According to the experimental results, LCSD is an effective free alternative to enhance the student's skills on control system analysis for our automatic control course. Also, some improvements have been identified for future LCSD versions.Publicación 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, SebastiánWeb-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.Publicación 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, SebastiánThis 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.Publicación Virtual and Remote Labs in Control Education: a Survey(Elsevier, 2016-11-14) Heradio Gil, Rubén; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Dormido Canto, SebastiánVirtual 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.Publicación Automated assessment and monitoring support for competency-based courses(IEEE Xplore, 2019-03-28) Vargas, Héctor; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Chacón, Jesús; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Farias, Gonzalo; Galán, Daniel; Dormido Canto, SebastiánCompetency-based education is becoming increasingly adopted by higher education institutions all over the world. This paper presents a framework that assists instructors in this pedagogical paradigm and its corresponding open-source implementation. The framework supports the formal definition of competency assessment models and the students' evaluation under these models. It also provides distinct learning analytics for identifying course shortcomings and validating corrective actions instructors have introduced in a course. Finally, this paper reports the benefits of applying our framework to an engineering course at the Pontifical Catholic University, Valparaíso, Chile for three years.Publicación Providing collaborative support to virtual and remote laboratories(IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), 2013-06-04) Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Jara, Carlos A.; Sanchez, Jose; Dormido Canto, Sebastián; Torres, Fernando; Candelas, Francisco A.Virtual and remote laboratories (VRLs) are e-learning resources that enhance the accessibility of experimental setups providing a distance teaching framework which meets the student's hands-on learning needs. In addition, online collaborative communication represents a practical and a constructivist method to transmit the knowledge and experience from the teacher to students, overcoming physical distance and isolation. This paper describes the extension of two open source tools: (1) the learning management system Moodle, and (2) the tool to create VRLs Easy Java Simulations (EJS). Our extension provides: (1) synchronous collaborative support to any VRL developed with EJS (i.e., any existing VRL written in EJS can be automatically converted into a collaborative lab with no cost), and (2) support to deploy synchronous collaborative VRLs into Moodle. Using our approach students and/or teachers can invite other users enrolled in a Moodle course to a real-time collaborative experimental session, sharing and/or supervising experiences at the same time they practice and explore experiments using VRLs.Publicación Physics Experiments at the UNEDLabs Portal(International Federation of Engineering Education Societies (IFEES), 2012-01-22) Dormido Canto, Sebastián; Sánchez, José; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Carreras, Carmen; Sánchez Fernández, Juan Pedro; Yuste, ManuelUNEDLabs is a web portal based on a free, modern, open source, and well-known learning management system: Moodle. This portal joins two theme networks of virtual and remote laboratories (one for Control Engineering and another one for Physics, named AutomatL@bs and FisL@bs, respectively) together. AutomatL@bs has been operative for five years now. Following AutomatL@bsâ?? scheme, FisL@bs was created as a network of remote and virtual laboratories for physics university education via the Internet to offer students the possibility of performing hands-on experiences in different fields of physics in two ways: simulation and real remote operation. Now, both FisL@bs and AutomatL@bs join together (while maintaining their independency) into an unique new web portal called UNEDLabs. This work focuses on this new web environment and gives a detailed account of a novel way in Physics to let distance learning students gain practical experience autonomously. This paper explains how the new portal works and the software tools used for creating it. In addition, it also describes the physics experiments which are already operative.Publicación The experiment editor: supporting inquiry-based learning with virtual labs(IOP Science, 2017-03-08) Galán, Daniel; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Dormido Canto, SebastiánInquiry-based learning is a pedagogical approach where students are motivated to pose their own questions when facing problems or scenarios. In physics learning, students are turned into scientists who carry out experiments, collect and analyze data, formulate and evaluate hypotheses, and so on. Lab experimentation is essential for inquiry-based learning, yet there is a drawback with traditional hands-on labs in the high costs associated with equipment, space, and maintenance staff. Virtual laboratories are helpful to reduce these costs. This paper enriches the virtual lab ecosystem by providing an integrated environment to automate experimentation tasks. In particular, our environment supports: (i) scripting and running experiments on virtual labs, and (ii) collecting and analyzing data from the experiments. The current implementation of our environment supports virtual labs created with the authoring tool Easy Java/Javascript Simulations. Since there are public repositories with hundreds of freely available labs created with this tool, the potential applicability to our environment is considerable.
