The committee and the department chair put the emphasis on thedevelopment of the technology components of the studio, understanding that it would bean evolving project. The phases of development would first target collaborative learning,then distance learning, and ultimately, the goal would be to achieve a RemotelyInteractive Laboratory with some of the capabilities of model programs such as the one inplace at L’École Polytecnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), in Switzerland [1] and thatof Northern Alberta Institute of Technology and Athabasca University’s teachinglaboratories [2].Implementation of eStudioBy the end of the spring semester of 2007, the plan for eStudio

and, in somecases, advanced math courses. This was not the introductory course we wanted to teach.We decided to plan a course with the following properties: • Prerequisites limited to introductory programming and a college math course • Course work would promote higher order thinking skills according to Bloom’s taxonomy of cognitive learning levels4. • Content would teach students practical information security skills: skills that would help students analyze real-world security situationsIn our search for support of this alternate course model, we examined numerous textbooks. Atthe high end are books like Bishop1 that focus on a mathematical treatment of the subject. Othertexts, like Whitman and Mattord 11 do not

received donations from Falcon Communications Inc. and TimeWarner Telecom including a Nortel DMS-10 switching system, an IP/PBX, IP phones, andSONET OC-3 add/drop multiplexers. Together with the equipment in the current two networkinglaboratories, we plan on developing an integrated advanced TCN laboratory. It will present anintegrated network environment where traditional telephone network, VOIP, data network andbackbone fiber optic network coexist with data, voice and video traffic. Figure 2 shows thefuture advanced TCN laboratory configuration.The DMS-10 system is a carrier class central office switching platform offering service optionsranging from simple dial tone to advanced voice and data networking. Our DMS-10 can supportup to 10,000 lines

Software engineersare seldom educated as to the use of temporal logic though it is often needed to accuratelyexplain time-based relationships

A virtualfacility can have two purposes: a) to facilitate the feasibility study of an engineering systemwhile in the planning stage, and based on the study, designers can adjust the parameters duringtheir final planning so the anticipated system can serve its purpose and b) to study the behaviorand control of a complex engineering system for educational and research purposes withoutbuilding the system. The development of these virtual facilities can involve expertise withcomplex mathematical solutions with tedious software developments and effective graphical userinterface 3. Considering the level of involvement, sometimes it is difficult for an individualinstitution to develop and maintain such

Thedata collection and related results will be presented in a series of publications. This paper is thefirst in the series. Below first we summarize plans for data collection and related instruments forthe comprehensive study. Then, we provide details on the completed pilot study.Overall, students will be asked, through surveys and focus groups, what type of technologicalcommunication, if any, they currently use to complete group work, if they have had anyexperience with remote group work, and their perceptions on incorporating group work throughtechnology into the engineering curriculum. These data will

operatingsystems; so we chose VMware in building the new virtual networking lab.In the early trials in our Intrusion Detection Technologies Lab5, only one Linux virtual machinewas built for the students to use as the server (target). The host machine was used as the client.We had some degree of success with this setup. However, there were also problems: • With only one virtual machine, it was difficult to implement labs involving multiple hosts, For example, setting up an intrusion detection system with sensor and console was planned but not implemented. • Students had different operating systems on their personal computers: Windows 2000, XP, Vista and even Linux. Because they needed to use the host machine as the client

They are not agile and always reactlate after an event has occurred. A shift to an event-driven enterprise management system wouldmean that business applications would only run when an event triggers it instead of eitherrunning all the time or at specified intervals. It will be challenging and cost prohibitive for theindividual user (company) of RFID systems to develop the robust RFID network components ofthe type that have been described above. The encouraging development is that individual systemsdevelopers and
