Acase study of remote-control computing software in operation is also presented, describing howone off-the-shelf package was setup to monitor and control a plant floor production system.IntroductionNetworking technologies, and especially the Internet, have become a major component ofapplication systems. As we teach the design and implementation of process control systems inthe Engineering curriculum, we must recognize that these systems will require capabilities forcontrol and support from remote locations. For example, the need for remote control may bedriven by the high cost of a particular process. The Oak Ridge National Laboratory uses remoteprocess control at its

With a primarymission of education, USAFA has a unique opportunity to contribute to the Net-Zero Energy efforts whileat the same time promoting Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). Within USAFA, theDepartment of Electrical and Computer Engineering has developed a Green Energy Lab to further bothfaculty and student understanding of solar, wind, and other energy generation technologies and theirapplications. Over the last several years and including the current year, undergraduate senior capstoneteams have designed and developed a highly mobile renewable/green energy system supporting the NetZero goal.

One area that particularly felt the impact wasscience, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education, where hands-on learningexperiences were limited. An NSF (National Science Foundation) report indicated around 55million students (about twice the population of Texas) in the U.S. were affected by the shift tovirtual or alternative learning [3].
