With the advent of IoT, a large number of devices are now being connected tothe web for data collection, management, and control [1, 2, 3, 4]. As a subset of IoT, remotelaboratories allow to access laboratory equipment over the web to perform experiments. Atraditional remote laboratory system involves a full-scale computer system along withassociated interfacing and web hosting technologies, but sometimes there is significantoverhead for the initial commission and subsequent maintenance of a remote laboratorysystem [5, 6].
