The idea for the project was motivated by the student’s desire to learn more about GSMtechnology and how to apply this type of communication network to an automation or controlsystem. GSM technology is typically not a topic that is discussed in-depth in undergraduatewireless communications courses. The system operates by having the user send a command usingSmall Message

Students log in to a virtual environment,consisting of one or more virtual machines, to perform hands-on exercises. They do not need togo to an on-campus lab at a fixed time. Students can do the virtual labs at any place and at anytime. Virtualization makes it possible for students to do some labs which are otherwiseunavailable in a traditional environment. In many courses with a lab component, F2F sectionsand DE sections shared the same virtual lab environment already, making the transition fromface-to-face to online easier.As described in papers previously [3]-[4], different virtual lab
