The document discusses the development of low-cost client/server cores for remote experimentation in electronics. It presents two remote workbench designs - a boundary-scan test workbench and a microcontroller workbench. Both workbenches use inexpensive embedded internet modules and open source software to allow remote control and monitoring of experiments over the internet at low cost compared to previous solutions.

- 8. Conclusion Client and server code for the two workbenches is available as open source modules from Google code Performance is far superior to our previous solution based on Maxim-Dallas TINI ® network microcontrollers at ≈ same cost The same AP7000 Base board can run multiple experiments simultaneously
