Echelon Meeting - April 30, 2004
Methods for Specification, Monitoring and Reasoning About Scalable Distributed and Embedded Systems Authored By Gul Agha on 05/30/2004 In order to effectively use large-scale distributed and embedded systems, the problem of developing software which coordinates large numbers of distributed and embedded nodes must be addressed. Difficulties of Anchor Placement Authored By Chen Zhang on 05/01/2004 Anchors are Tier 2 nodes; initially these were on 2nd and 4th rows, now new proposal (to simplify routing) puts these all on 3rd row. Sensor Network Applications with Return on Investment Authored By Lakshman Krishnamurthy on 05/01/2004 This is the presentation given by Lakshman Krishnamurthy from Intel Research/Communication Technology Lab at the April 30, 2004 Echelon Meeting.

Reliability Autonomous distribution Memory usage Energy Speed Kansei: Motivation and Genesis of a Robotic Sensor Network Testbed Authored By Prabal Dutta, Chris Anderson, Mukundan Sridharan, Anish Arora on 04/30/2004 In 2003, NEST teams showcased several WSN scenarios. Some of these demos required Middleware (distributed algorithms), Multi-hop communications, and Detection of non-deterministic signals. It was Quickly discovered that these are difficult to do in simulation. Instead one must get out into the world to collect data and test performance. But how do you collect the data required for research and verification of middleware, communications, detection, classification, and tracking?
