Abstract:
This article discusses some use of cloud technology in mathematical calculations using Remote Desktop Ulteo OVD. To use such technologies, it is enough to have access to the Internet through a suitable browser to access an open virtual desktop on a powerful remote computer and then use the resources of the remote computer (server) to solve their problems in processing various information resources – solving mathematical problems, working out texts, translating from one language to another, help on the interpretation of different terms, their origin and more. You can organize access to Ulteo OVD from two servers (Application Server (Windows 2008R2) and Session Manager Server (Linux Ubuntu)), using the Proxmox web-based virtual environment. Gran1, Gran2D, Gran3D software can be installed on the application server. The article also examines in detail some examples of the use of the pedagogical software for educational purposes Gran1. In particular, the calculation of the approximate value of the double integral; graphical two-dimensional problem solving, the so-called linear programming problems; two-dimensional problems, including convex programming – finding the smallest value of a convex downward function (or the highest convexity of a function) on a convex set of inequalities (including linear ones). However, the use in the educational process of any technology, including modern information and communication, as well as the content of training, should be pedagogically balanced, which will allow to avoid any negative effects on the formation of personality of a future member of society, his mental and physical development.
