Abstract
With the rapidly development of information technology, remote laboratory is playing an increasing important role in the experimental teaching area. However, the remote manner of experimental teaching still has some problems to be addressed. In this paper, we propose a platform called Teaching Platform of Cloud Laboratory (TPCL), which targets to provide remote teaching service for universities in China by taking advantage of the high utilization and flexible deployment of cloud computing. This work mostly focuses on the communication optimization, scalability, utilization and reliability of the experimental nodes in TPCL.
