iSchool Remote lab allows students and instructors the ability to remote desktop into an iSchool lab machine. Users have access to all the same software and resources as in physical computer lab, using both Windows or Mac.There are 35 machines in the IST pool reserved for students and 8 machines under Test pool for instructors and falcuties.

- Leverage information as an asset- Increase return on investment by �inding the least busiest time or day for system maintainance - Analyze remote lab resources and usage distribution - Analyze student demographics and behaviors - Make better business decisions for optimizing the use of remotelab computers

Remote lab activity for 2014-15

The line graph shows the trend of number of students using remote lab during Fall 2014 and Spring 2015 based on weekday and weekend. The usage of remote lab has a sig-ni�icant drop during summer vacation, winter break and spring break, which is the best time to maintain and up-grade the remote lab system.

Remote lab weekly activity

The bar plot shows remote lab usage during a week of Fall 2014 and Spring 2015. It shows students are not willing to use remote lab during weekend for both spring and fall semester. Besides, compared to morning, students are more willing to use remote lab in the af-ternoon.

Remote lab usage by Time & GPA

The line graph shows the usage trend across 24 hours based on students’ GPA. The trends of all the GPA scores is similar, activity linearly increasing to-wards the evening and dipping after mid-night. Also students having GPA 3.5 access remote lab more than other GPA scores.

Remote lab usage by Computers

The bubble chart shows the peak system activities during Fall 2014 and Spring 2015 grouped by computer names. This indicates IST-LD-RLAB-H01 have been used more than other systems. iSchool can employ better allocation strategy to balance system usage among all the systems in order to avoid over-use
