Guimaraes, E. G.; Cardozo, E.; Moraes, D. H.; Coelho, P. R. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2011
The design and implementation of remote laboratories present different levels of complexity according to the nature of the equipments operated by the remote laboratory, the requirements imposed on the accessing computers, the network linking the user to the laboratory, and the type of experiments the laboratory supports. This paper addresses the…

Trudell, Libby – Library Hi Tech, 1983
Compares two major types of electronic mail systems--node-to-node networks (messages are sent directly from one terminal to another with functions handled locally at each node) and computer based message systems (terminals communicate directly with host computer using access to functions of large computer). Information sources are noted. (EJS)

Marcus, Richard S.; Reintjes, J. Francis – 1979
A primary goal of this project was to develop an interface that would provide direct access for inexperienced users to existing online bibliographic information retrieval networks. The experiment tested the concept of a virtual-system mode of access to a network of heterogeneous interactive retrieval systems and databases. An experimental…
