Abstract
The main difficulty in building online research laboratories is the use of computing resources and electronic instruments in multiple hardware and software platforms. Thus, this paper describes a service-oriented middleware using Web Services called ERLab (Electronic Remote Laboratory). The main goal of ERLab is to share data and scientific instruments, which operate and communicate over different protocols for different users on the Internet.
