1. System Architecture Directions for Networked Sensors Jason Hill, Rober Szewczyk, Alec Woo, Seth hollar, David Culler & Kristofer Pister Presented by Israel Martínez-Arredondo

2. 2 Outline Networked Sensor Characteristics Hardware Organization Tiny Microthreading Operating System (TinyOS) TinyOS Design Components Evaluation

3. 3 Networked Sensor Characteristics Small Physical size and low power consumption Concurrency-intensive Operation Limited Physical Parallelism and Controller Hierarchy Diversity in Desing and Usage Robust Operation

4. 4 Hardware Organization Three sleep modes (idle, power down & power save) Three LEDs to represent outputs Photo-sensor Radio Temperature Sensor Serial Port

5. 5 Tiny Microthreading OS (TinyOS) Requirements (small physical size, modest active power load & tiny inactive load) Two-level scheduling structure High levels of concurrency

6. 6 Tiny OS Design Tiny Scheduler Components Frame Tasks Event Handlers Command Handlers

7. 7 Component Types Hardware Abstractions Synthetic Hardware High Level Software Components 
