Understanding Power Electronics and Electrical Machines in Multidisciplinary Wind Energy Conversion System Courses
Wind energy conversion systems (WECS) nowadays offer an extremely wide range of topologies, including various different types of electrical generators and power converters. Wind energy is also an application of great interest to students and with a huge potential for engineering employment. Making WECS the main center of interest when teaching power electronics and electrical machines can therefore be highly advantageous. This paper describes a n…
Web site structure mining using social network analysis
Purpose Web sites are typically designed attending to a variety of criteria. However, web site structure determines browsing behavior and way‐finding results. The aim of this study is to identify the main profiles of web sites' organizational structure by modeling them as graphs and considering several social network analysis features. Design/methodology/approach A case study based on 80 institutional Spanish universities' web sites has been used…
The role of Internet in the development of future software projects
Purpose The Internet has evolved, prompted in part by new Web 2.0 technologies, to become a more widespread platform for interaction, communication, and activism. Virtual communities, or groups of people informally bound together by shared expertise, synthesise this Internet evolution and the Web 2.0 technology. Users increasingly want to engage online with one another and with organisations of all kinds. These novel Internet‐based technologies d…
Internet in the development of future road‐traffic control systems
Purpose Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) are defined as new infrastructures that combine people, roads and vehicles over the basis of modern embedded systems with enhanced digital connectivity. ITS is fast becoming a reality, favored in their development by the use of the internet. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the feasibility of road‐traffic management systems, using the internet as the communication link. Design/methodology/ap…
Modeling Learner Satisfaction in an Electronic Instrumentation and Measurement Course Using Structural Equation Models
The prevailing tendency in modern university reforms is towards ldquohow people learn,rdquo following a learner-centered approach in which the learner is the main actor of the teaching-learning process. As a consequence, one of the key indicators of the teaching-learning process is the measurement of learner satisfaction within the classroom. Learner satisfaction has traditionally been measured using survey responses to a standard learning survey…
An empirical study of the driving forces behind online communities
Purpose A large variety of online communities have emerged during the last years as a result of the challenges faced by both the business and scientific worlds. This trend has also been promoted by the development of internet and new Web 2.0 technologies. In this context, this paper is focused on the determinants of success of online communities. But, as a difference from other studies, these determinants are analyzed from the social network anal…
EDSPLab
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a remote lab and a web‐based teaching environment which provides access for remote control of Digital Signal Processors (DSP device) and real instrumentation. The framework, named eDSPLab, has been designed using LabVIEW for debugging and testing Digital Signal Processing (DSP) experiments in a real lab without physical and temporal restrictions, and it has been integrated as a service in a modern e…
Addressing Learner Satisfaction Outcomes in Electronic Instrumentation and Measurement Laboratory Course Organization
This paper proposes and details a course organization methodology based on learner satisfaction achievement. The approach follows the prevailing tendency in modern university reforms which are primarily concerned about "how people learn." As a consequence, the learner has been placed as the main actor of the teaching-learning process. Nevertheless, the current learning literature has not addressed the measurement of learner satisfaction within la…
