TinyOS is an open-source operating system, using Component Description Language NesC for development. TinyOS is designed mostly for wireless sensor network, in which nodes have very limited resources. A representative scheduling mechanism in TinyOS is analyzed and its shortcomings are listed in this paper. An improved design of the priority-based soft real-time task scheduling strategy is proposed...
Nowadays, smart spaces occupy an essential part of ubiquitous computing environment. The spaces integrated with wireless sensors networks, actuators and context-aware services become part of our daily life. Smart spaces are equipped with a large number of wireless sensors that aim to collect large quantities of context information, during the process, there exists a large amount of collisions and...
In this paper, we propose a novel local framing pre-schedule scheme to improve energy saving in CSMA/TDMA hybrid MAC layer of wireless sensor network. This MAC combines CSMA and TDMA functionalities together, while obviates their shortcomings. Usually, in a hybrid CSMA/TDMA MAC such as ZMAC, all the receivers have to perform low power listening all the time to wait for in-coming data. Although low...
