Need to develop application to graphically show topology of UCL testbed.

Graphical location of all nodes

Graphical location of soekris boxes

Connections amongst nodes and boxes

Admin Panel :

  • Add New nodes
  • Delete new nodes
  • Set position
  • Set connected nodes

Reservation:

Things to do:

  • Create DB or Parse XML
    • Motes
    • Connections
    • Soekris Boxes
    • Users
    • Jobs
    • Connections
  • Register Resources -Motes
  • Display motes on screen based on position set in db
  • On highlighting mote – display mote information -id, name, status, link to schedule
  • On selection – link to node information, link to connection

Admin

Login: Username / password

Testbed schedule: assigned jobs – testbed usage times

Reservations: Select a soekris box to use – Select a timeslot – Select a mote

Testbed usage

Load executables: upload class files to directories to run for analysis

WSN Use Cases

Key requirements to achieve

  • Reliability – 99.99%
  • Wireless – Multi year battery life
  • Enterprise Integration – IP and industry protocols
  • Flexibility – Application optimization
  • Deployability – Network Management

Nodes Collect sensor information – light / heat / weight / changes in environment

Within a time frame send data to a remote sink / sensing device

Sensing device forwards information to Gateway

Gateway uses ethernet / wireless to send data to server

Data on server is recorded and sent to application / device for modification / analysis

WSN Cases

Go through “How To Build WSN” leaflet taking key points July 4, 2006
