• Resumen

  • The cloud computing (CC) is an important emerging information technology for the information resource optimizing. In this casestudy, we applied CC technology in the quality engineering education platform design process, and investigated the effects of CCon saving resources, optimizing process, and education innovations. First, we described the designing and applying process of CCeducation platform. Then, we designed a measuring software aided method on evaluating quality of CC application. Finally, astandard was applied to evaluate university laboratory’s management ability on CC platform. By applying cloud computingtechnology in quality engineering courses, and providing evaluating method, this research has both teaching and researchimplications for engineering education, like teaching students how to management cloud computing platform with ‘‘learn by doing’’model.
