New paradigms such as the Industry 4.0, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), or industrial cyber-physical systems (ICPSs) have been impacting the manufacturing environment in recent years. Nevertheless, these challenging concepts are also being faced from the educational field: Engineering students must acquire knowledge and skills under the view of these frameworks. This paper describes the utilization of an Industry 4.0-oriented flexible manufacturing system (FMS) as an educational tool to develop final projects (FPs) of engineering degrees. A number of scopes are covered by an FMS, such as automation, supervision, instrumentation, communications, and robotics. The utilization of an FMS with educational purposes started in the academic year 2011–2012 and still remains active. Here, the most illustrative FPs are expounded, and successful academic outcomes are reported. In addition, a set of initial considerations based on the experience acquired by the FP tutors is provided.

The control of industrial processes is an important theme covered by electrical engineering courses. The implementation of practical activities in laboratories with physical systems and devices complements the theory about control and automation addressed in lectures and enables apprentices to face real situations and problems present in industrial environments. This paper discusses the use of a didactic pilot plant by the students of University of São Paulo in an electrical engineering undergraduate discipline based on the project-based learning approach. The students performed simultaneous experiments with the following control systems: water temperature in the plant, water level in two reservoirs, and water flow rate through the plant, and also monitored the variables of the processes through a supervisory system. The answers of a questionnaire applied to the students after each project and the results registered in technical reports illustrate their performance in the discipline and provide a positive feedback on the use of the industrial plant as a didactic tool.

This paper illustrates an internet-based fuzzy control system of complex industrial manufacturing, which is cement production. It ensures remote and fuzzy control of the process in real time in cement factories in Algeria. The remote control system contains several tasks, such as alarms diagnostic, e-maintenance and synchronising regulation loops, to guarantee the automated performance. To evolve the system, we propose firstly, fuzzy logic to control the cement mill workshop and ensure that the system is operational with minimal downtime. Secondly, we integrate internet technology to remote control via internet to secure human life and render it unnecessary for operators to be at site. When there is a breakdown, it is not necessary to send an expert to diagnose and solve problems. Therefore, the system reduces travel costs by sending reports and transmitting process data. Operators can execute and monitor the system according to authentication access in main control room or via internet.

The aim of this work is to develop an Internet and fuzzy based control and data acquisition system for an industrial process plant which can ensure remote running and fuzzy control of a cement factory. Cases studies of the proposed system application in three cement factories in Algeria, SCAEK (Setif), SCIMAT (Batna), and SCT (Tebessa), are discussed. The remote process control consists of alarms generated during running of the processes while maintaining and synchronizing different regulation loops thus ensuring automatic running of processes smoothly. In addition, fuzzy control of the kiln and the other two mills ensures that the system is operational at all times with minimal downtime. The process control system contains different operator station (OP), alarms table and a provision to monitor trends analysis. The operator can execute any operation according to his authorised access assigned by the system administrator using user administration tool. The Internet technology is used for human security by avoiding all times presence of operators at site for maintenance. Further, in case of a breakdown, the problem would be remotely diagnosed and resolved avoiding requirement of an expert on site thus eliminating traveling cost, security risks, visa formalities, etc. These trips are difficult to organize (costs, visas, risks). So the enterprise can reduce downtimes and travel costs. In order to realize a process control system guided by operators in the main control room or through Internet, the process control is based on programming in PCS 7 utilizing Cemat library and Fuzzy Control++ Siemens tools.

The multi-channel surround system used for multimedia teaching can bring more powerful auditory effects to the audience, and can fully mobilize students’ interest and enthusiasm in learning. Such as music arrangement, Yunnan musical instruments, the sound characteristics of national music and national musical instruments, and the sound processing knowledge of music processing. You can quickly master basic music arrangement, the sound characteristics of musical instruments, and the knowledge of mixing and processing music. Achieve better teaching results. Most multimedia devices on the market, with the music and sound effects, a high compression mono or stereo transmission. This mono or stereo transmission with a high compression ratio is very low quality. Since audio is far less powerful than visual impact, and the capacity of the disc used to store audio is small, people tend to focus on visual information processing, but ignore the importance of audio. Multi-channel surround sound technology has received more and more attention in the teaching practice of film and television colleges, but it is also affected by various factors such as venue facilities. This has caused bottlenecks in teaching in this field and has greatly affected the teaching effect. This paper designs and constructs a mobile multi-channel surround sound teaching system from a practical perspective. As part of a multimedia teaching device, try to use the best digital surround sound system for today’s audio reproduction. The feasibility of entering the digital surround sound system into the multimedia teaching classroom is analyzed. Better promote students’ correct understanding of audio and use modern high-tech digital technology to spread real art.

In the environment of expansion of college enrollment, the current teaching resources cannot satisfy the requirements of students’ learning, which greatly restricts the students' learning interest, especially in the course of automatic control principle. With the development of computer technology and virtual instrument technology, the emergence of virtual laboratory not only provides a beneficial supplement for the traditional experiment, but also extends the experiment without limitation of time and space. Based on the concept of virtual laboratory, a virtual experiment platform is proposed for the course of automatic control principle by applying B/S network architecture and Mysql database in LABview software. The realizations of virtual experiment platform such as remote network design, interface design, basic and innovative experimental contents are further studied in this paper. This virtual experimental platform can provide network remote access for students and offer an online environment for teachers to check experimental results. This platform has completely broken the traditional experimental model and helps students to cultivate creative ability. The characteristic of excellent openness and flexibility can ensure adding new function for future education development in this platform. Further to the observation of the teaching effect of this platform applied in the Nanfang College of Sun Yat-Sen University, students are more willing to accept the automatic control principle course combined with virtual experimental platform.
