Abstract


The scope of this paper includes development and implementation of virtual laboratories. Virtual Experiments can be performed using the concept of virtual Intelligent SoftLab (VIS). The virtual experiments described here will help students to perform it at anytime and anywhere. The model accepts inputs using virtual instruments and observed virtual results on the screen. There is a facility for constructing an experimental circuit, change the input values and observed outputs respectively. The graphical and simulated effects of virtual experiments are visible on the screen. SoftLab will help Electronics, Computer Science and Engineering students perform and practice experiments to improve their understanding of the subject.

Keywords


SoftLab, Virtual, VIS Model, Virtualization.
