人们对远程实验室的兴趣和使用一直在迅速增长。这些实验室通过互联网提供对真实实验室设备的远程访问。在适当的情况下，它们可以支持甚至取代传统的(邻近)实验室，以更低的成本提供更好的机会，并鼓励机构间共享昂贵的资源。到目前为止，最大的关注是开发管理访问和互动的核心基础设施，较少的关注是考虑教学问题，如哪些学习成果最适合这种方式。然而，最近人们认识到，还必须考虑如何也支持协作和监督。在本文中，我们讨论了一种新的方法来集成对单个实验室实例的多用户分布式访问的支持。该方法保留了底层体系结构中固有的轻量级客户端的优势。
Interest in, and use of, remote laboratories has been rapidly growing. These laboratories provide remote access, via the internet, to real laboratory equipment. Under appropriate circumstances they can support or even replace traditional (proximal) laboratories, provide improved access at reduced cost, and encourage inter-institutional sharing of expensive resources. Most attention to date has been on the development of the core infrastructure that manages access and interaction, and to a lesser extent consideration of pedagogic issues such as which learning outcomes are best suited to this modality. There has however been a recent recognition of the importance of also considering how collaboration and supervision can also be supported. In this paper we discuss a novel approach to the integration of support for multi-user distributed access to a single laboratory instance. The approach retains the benefits of the lightweight client inherent in the underlying architecture.
