Interoperating remote laboratory management systems (RLMSs) for more efficient sharing of laboratory resources
Remote laboratories have emerged as a viable addition to the tools supporting experiential learning. The advent of  Remote  Laboratory  Management  Systems  (RLMSs)  has  allowed  several  integrated  heterogeneous  remote  laboratories, developed with various technologies, to be administrated and accessed through a common portal. A key  benefit  arising  from  the  ability  to  access  the  laboratories  remotely  through  RLMSs  is  the  opportunity  to  share  laboratory  resources  across  multiple  institutions.  This  sharing  is,  however,  restricted  by  the  inability  of  a  contemporary RLMS installed at an institution to communicate with other RLMS installed at other institution. In  this paper we propose a novel Application Programming Interface (API) design pattern for inter­communication  between RLMSs accommodating different levels of functional support a...
