AIRES: a standard for web-based remote experiments
Abstract
This manuscript proposes a standard for the communication between a remote laboratory and the clients willing to use that laboratory. The ultimate goal of the research is to allow anyone to use any experiment, without the need to use the specific interface provided by the laboratory site that offers each experiment. The authors strongly believe that adopting such a standard would greatly enhance the effectiveness of remote experiments. The study presented herein is (of course) preliminary, and another purpose of this manuscript is to promote and stimulate further research on the matter.
