The Berkeley wireless sensor network group has made its 6lowpan implementation publicly available in tinyos-2.x-contrib/berkeley/b6lowpan. It adds IPv6 support to TinyOS, and supports address stateless autoconfiguration, multihop routing, and fragmentation for an MTU of 1280 bytes, among other things. Standard internet tools like ping6, nc6, and tracert6 can be used to debug installations using b6lowpan, and applications may use UDP as the transport layer. More information is available at the project wiki.

By hackmann, Section News
Wed Jul 9th, 2008 at 11:37:42 AM PST
|
Washington University's Wireless Sensor Network group has released a version of the MAC Layer Architecture (MLA) for TinyOS 2.0.2. MLA defines a component-based architecture for MAC protocols in wireless sensor networks. MLA consists of hardware-independent interfaces required by timing sensitive MAC protocols, and platform-independent reusable components that implement MAC layer logic on top of them. The MLA architecture can be used to develop a large number of platform-independent MAC implementations, with little or no further effort required to adapt these implementations to new hardware platforms.

The Tenet project has made a public release of the Tenet software v2.0. Tenet is software for flexibly programming a tiered network of sensors. Tiered networks consist of motes and masters (PC-class devices, such as Stargate, that run Linux or Cygwin). In Tenet, all applications run on the masters which task the motes using a simple but expressive linear data-flow tasking language. Tenet 2.0 introduces several new platforms/protocols/features and
has been used in seismic and habitat monitoring deployments for
up to a month.
