“LiLa” is the acronym for the “Library of Labs”, an initiative of eight universities and three enterprises including cmcl innovations, for the mutual exchange of and access to virtual laboratories (simulation environments) and remote experiments (real laboratories which are remotely controlled via the internet).
The primary target groups for LiLa are university teachers and their undergraduate and graduate students in engineering and the natural sciences.
The LiLa portal will provide:
- access to remote experiments and virtual labs, such as cmcl innovations' srm websuite
- a scheduling/booking system
- connections to library resources
- a tutoring system
- a 3D-environment for online collaboration
The LiLa community provides:
- an organisational framework for access to and exchange of experiments between institutions
- contract templates to facilitate these arrangements
- didactical support for lecturers integrating remote and virtual labs into curricula
As part of its involvement in the project, cmcl innovations is providing access to the srm websuite for the LiLa community.
The srm websuite provides:
- a platform for virtual laboratories that focuses on combustion in engines
- insight into state-of-the-art combustion processes and futuristic fuels
- dymanic and relevant virtual laboratories for educational purposes
- an authentic laboratory experience, harnessing cmcl's innovative simulation tools
- a web-interface for running simulations on cmcl's simulation servers, accessible from many devices including mobile phones
- engaging and up-to-date user experiences through Web 2.0 "Mash-ups" of supporting materials
- supporting materials including video clips, animations, articles, and assessment exercises
- training for either the institutional or corporate setting
- support for experience levels from high school students to graduate students to experienced R&D engineers
cmcl innovations also provides custom-built srm websuite laboratories to meet your specific educational needs. If you are interested in the relevant and dynamic learning experience the srm websuite can offer, please contact us for more information.
