Abstract(s)

The appliance of the IEEE1451.0 Std. into the remote experimentation domain may be an interesting solution not only to develop reconfigurable weblab infrastructures, but also to improve the way infrastructures, and their experiments, may be shared. Therefore, this paper proposes a distributed weblab architecture supported on a IEEE1451 concept named Transducer Electronic Data Sheet (TEDS). It is suggested the use of a new TEDS, named LabTEDS, to provide information about weblab infrastructures namely, web location, technical resources and type of experiments described according a metadata model specification defined by the Lab2go project. The access to the architecture is made through the IEEE1451.0 HTTP API extended with new functions. At the end of the paper a thin implementation of the architecture is presented, supported on a cross-mapping established between the HTTP functions and the low-level commands, which are used to control the weblabs.
