TinyAID: Automated Instrumentation and Evaluation Support for TinyOS
نویسندگان
چکیده
TinyAID is a tool that supports automated instrumentation and evaluation of TinyOS-based distributed applications. Two types of instrumentations are provided: logging of call chains and message flows within the network. TinyAID assists the debugging process by post evaluation of the logged data. A main benefit is the visualization component for representing traces in their spatial and temporal order. The instrumentation and evaluation concepts are evaluated in two case studies: the SelfWISE framework and a selection of routing algorithms. Due to the automated process of TinyAID the evaluation could be performed without a deeper knowledge of the implementations under test. In the first case TinyAID revealed a weakness in the TOSSIM random number generator. The second case demonstrates the power of TinyAID to visualize the quality of protocols in a unified manner, without any manual changes to the specific source code.

(Re)Enabling support for the CC2420 chip on the TinyOS Simulator
Simulation tools for networked devices are a valuable resource to speed up software development. • TOSSIM (TinyOS SIMulator)[1] is a network simulator that is part of TinyOS [2] (an operating system for networked wireless sensors). • The CC2420 chip [3] is a radio frequency transciever used in many wireless sensor devices. The TOSSIM maintained as part of the main TinyOS trunk does not implemen...
متن کاملPoster Abstract: TinyOS Meets Wireless Mesh Networks
We present TinyWifi, a nesC code base extending TinyOS to support Linux powered network nodes. It enables developers to build arbitrary TinyOS applications and protocols and execute them directly on Linux by compiling for the new TinyWifi platform. Using TinyWifi as a TinyOS platform, we expand the applicability and means of evaluation of wireless protocols originally designed for sensornets to...

This work presents the first known implementation of elliptic curve cryptography for sensor networks, motivated by those networks’ need for an efficient, secure mechanism for shared cryptographic keys’ distribution and redistribution among nodes. Through instrumentation of UC Berkeley’s TinyOS, this work demonstrates that secret-key cryptography is already viable on the MICA2 mote. Through anal...
متن کاملReliable characterization of coffee bean aroma profiles by automated headspace solid phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry with the support of a dual-filter mass spectra library.
This investigation is based on the automated solid phase microextraction GC-MS analysis of the volatile fraction of a variety of coffee bean matrices. Volatile analytes were extracted by headspace (HS)-SPME which was achieved with the support of automated instrumentation. The research was directed towards various important aspects relating to coffee aroma analysis: monitoring of the volatile fr...
