Abstract

The paper analyzes thethe methods of representing, storing, transmitting and processing virtual lab data and architecture . The features of virtualization of educational tasks are considered. Key requirements for the virtual lab were prioritized using the MoSCoW technique. The proposed approaches to determining the key characteristics of a virtual laboratory do not depend on the subject area for which the laboratory is being developed. The methods of analyzing the content and methods of presenting the results of educational activities allow not only to evaluate the amount of work to create a virtual laboratory, but also to determine the composition of the team to justify the involvement of various specialists.

Keywords: virtual lab, static elements, dynamic elements, content, user activity results, domain, key requirements.
