A Web-based Environment Providing Remote Access to FPGA Platforms for Teaching Digital Hardware Design

摘要

In this work we present the design and implementation of a Web-based application for remote access to the FPGA boards in a Digital Design Laboratory. It enables students from specialization courses to afford the design exercises at any place and time, even at home, just with an Internet access and a Web browser. At the same time, it opens the possibility of prototyping small designs to the rest of students which have no access rights to the physical Laboratory.
