bit sequence wascorrupted. The two-bit acknowledgment (ACK) field is used by the transmitter to receive anacknowledgment of a valid frame from any receiver. The end of a message frame is signaledthrough a seven-bit end-of-frame (EOF). Further details of CAN such as arbitration and errorhanding can be found in many references [17]. Figure 4. CAN Data Frame.IV. CANoe Simulation SoftwareCANoe, developed by Vector CANtech, is a robust CAN tool that is capable of simulating anentire CAN system [20]. CANoe supports the entire development process for networked systemsfrom planning to implementation. CANoe offers special functions for all phases of thedevelopment process of distributed systems and its Electronic

changesaccording to the values of the interactive variables. All software developed for the virtuallaboratory was implemented in the programming languages VRML, Java and Python. Therefore,it can be easily adapted to different platforms.As an example for the virtual laboratory environment presented, the classical strength-of-materials problem of determining the deflections and stress concentrations of a cantilever beammade of linear elastic material with stress raisers is described. The students can interactivelyvisualize, tabulate and graph data, and process and present results to explore the structuralbehavior. Page 11.175.11The future plans for this
