== History ==

<br />

TIMS was designed at the [[University of South Wales]] by Tim Hooper in 1971. It was developed to run student experiments for electrical engineering communications courses.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Manfredini|first=Carlo|date=1987-06-01|title=TIMS: Prize-Winning Learning System for Communications|url=https://worldradiohistory.com/hd2/IDX-AUSTRALIA/IDX/Archive-Electronics-Australia-IDX/IDX/80s/EA-1988-01-OCR-Page-0096.pdf|journal=Electronics Australia|pages=96}}</ref> Hooper’s concept was developed into the current TIMS model in the late 1980s.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Breznik|first=Alfred|date=2004-01-30|title=Hands-on learning system for Wireless laboratory courses|url=https://peer.asee.org/hands-on-learning-system-for-wireless-laboratory-courses.pdf|journal=Proceedings of the 2004 American Society for Engineering Education Annual Conference & Exposition|pages=9.658.1-9.658.5}}</ref> In 1986, the TIMS project won a competition organized by [[Electronics Australia]] for development work using the [[Texas Instruments TMS320]].[1] Emona Instruments also received an award for TIMS at the fifth Secrets of Australian ICT Innovation Competition.[2] <br />
