This paper describes a basic electronics learning system combining a hypermedia system explaining theoretical concepts with a basic simulator and a virtual laboratory to improve the engineering education process on electronics and the students skills before going to the actual laboratory. To accomplish this objective the system also provides a set of complementary resources, constituting a brid...

The GnRH analogue has been shown to be effective in the treatment of precocious puberty when given as a daily subcutaneous injection. We studied the effectiveness of a long-acting GnRH analogue, Triptoreline, for the treatment of central precocity, by suppressing gonadotropin and estradiol secretion in three children with true precocious puberty. One month after single dose intramuscular i...

A fault-based multifrequency test generation and fault diagnosis procedure is proposed in this work. The procedure selects a minimal set of test measures and generates the minimal set of frequency tests which guarantee maximum fault coverage and maximal diagnosis of circuit AC hard/soft faults. The procedure is exempli ed for several self-testable linear analog circuits.

The paper presents the results of applying the VISIR (Virtual Instrument Systems in Reality) system at the course of analog electronics for various degrees of the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Deusto (Spain). The efficiency of the VISIR had been monitored during past three years. Students’ feedback was collected and analyzed. The research shows: 1) VISIR system is functional and u...
