“…These features are common to most remote laboratories, and are actually independent of the particular remote laboratory settings. For this reason, RLMSs are needed, such as MIT iLabs [26], WebLab-Deusto [27], Labshare Sahara [28]), or RELATED [7]. These RLMSs provide development toolkits to incorporate remote laboratories, as well as management tools and common services.…”

“…In addition to this, a Remote Laboratory Management System (RLMS) (such as WebLab Deusto [5], LabShare Sahara [6], RELATED [7], or LiLa [8]) could be necessary to allow access to remote equipment, in order to provide on-line users with the ability to use remote laboratories in a similar way as if they were at the same physical location as the laboratory. This is a very relevant tool for distance education, as is our case, especially in the field of engineering, where hands-on experience in the use of real equipment is one of the main assets of students.…”

The employment of customized remote laboratories becomes very relevant for the teaching community in distance education, since lecturers have the necessity to use real equipment through the Internet, which is adapted to the students' skills. In addition to this, the creation and publication of utilities as services (being infrastructure as a service, platform as a service, or software as a service) have been a hot topic in recent years. This paper describes how the adaptation of real scientific laboratories based on OpenSocial has been performed in order to create laboratories as a service, which allow lecturers to create versatile scenarios depending on the learning/teaching process. This is possible due to its deconstruction, which can be seen as a set of services located in a specific Web container.

“…In order to get the laboratory's integration into RELATED, the methodology of development defined in RELATED has been used [9]. This methodology defines how a lab is considered from the RELATED perspective and how a connector must be built using the 'RLAB system' concept.…”

Development of virtual/remote laboratories is a common task involved in the design of course’s assessments (in engineering disciplines). The deployment of these laboratories must manage several aspects related to the real use of them, as user’s authorization and access, tracking of usage information, loading/saving data from experiments and so on. These features must be implemented by developers in a particular way for each laboratory. This paper shows how these services can be used automatically, with no development, using the RELATED management services. The deployment task consists of making a connector to the RELATED framework in order to consume these services. A full example is shown, describing the steps followed to integrate a previously developed low cost laboratory (based on a Lego system).
