1. Jan 2017 report

2. Working Title
A Hybrid Centralized and Distributed Time Slot and Channel Hopping Scheme for 6TiSCH Wireless Sensor Networks

3. Summary of 6TiSCH

4. Relevance to 6TiSCH RPL computes routes for scheduling
CoAP – Application Layer protocol used for monitoring and Centralized scheduling
6TiSCH Operation Sublayer(6top): Provides set of commands for upper layers to set up schedules (Management of queues, buffer sizes, transmission failure behavior)

6. Progress Developing a Load-balanced RPL function in cooja
Computing Node load i.e. Number of children
Capturing Energy used since node startup
Path Metric (Maximum Load coefficient: 1/(load*energy used))
Packet Capture using Wireshark
Finished paper on (Gen 1 AWS prototype evaluation)

7. Plan For February Finish the Load-balanced objective function
Write paper on RPL and submit it
