Distributed Laboratories

iDevice icon ...
Online labs are typically organized in a Client-Server-Architecture. In most cases every experiment needs its own experiment server.
If the experiments and its servers of a lab are at different locations, so we call it a distributed lab.

Furthermore there are different levels of the distribution of work between servers and clients (Table 2).

Factors which influence these distributions are, e.g.: performance of the clients and the servers, bandwidth between servers and clients, license policy, administrative needs.
