A prototype Internet experiment system for control engineering

This paper describes an Internet experiment system for control engineering that is comprised of an experiment system and a computer-aided teaching system. The experiment system was set up in a laboratory and connected to the Internet so that students could do experiments on their own personal computers anywhere anytime. The computer-aided teaching system was implemented by building a database on a server to which students had free access, and which they could then use to store and share information on their experiments.
