The meas-urements are compared to ex-situ measurements using the KLA Tencor profiler. An example of © American Society for Engineering Education, 2023coating thickness (in nanometers) progression with time (in minutes) for magnetron sputtered cop-per is presented in Figure 2, where it is observed that coating thickness increases linearly withtime. Similar graphs are obtained for other types of metallic coatings, including silver (not repre-sented).

– The IOT PlatformThe Environmental Sensing Data Network (ESDN) [8] is an infrastructure and a service developed andmanaged by the Center for IOT Engineering and Innovation (CIEI) [9] within the department ofTechnology Systems in CET. The main mission of ESDN is to enable the concept of Campus as a Lab[10], a platform facilitating easy deployment and management of networked sensors, to facilitate datacollection and data analytics in support of research and education. ESDN was designed to accommodatefour specific use cases: 1. Users, scientists, and educators can deploy sensors that do not have wireless communications options. CIEI developed a small form factor communications shim which intermediates and processes communication

This shows the importance of procrastination features to avoid falsenegatives. From an educational perspective, the false negatives are very important because theyreflect students who will underperform and were not identified. Another interesting result is thatthe precision of the models is similar, which means that if the models
