[net2-wg] Plans for TTX

[Omprakash Gnawali]

For our group presentation at TTX, here are the topics we would like to cover:

Released/supported protocols (Collection/Dissemination/Deluge):

1. Collection
- CTP updates, particularly 4-bit link estimator
- MultiHopLQI, a low footprint collection protocol
- Experimental comparisons with MultiHopLQI

2. Dissemination
- Drip TEP
- Deluge now uses Drip

3. Deluge
- What it is, the types of testing we have done
 (Note, we are introducing Deluge for the first time)

Protocols in beta stage

1. DIP
- What are the experimental plans and timeline for moving this to release

Protocols in alpha/pre-alpha stage


1. ZigBee
- Considering the lack of cycles available for this project, should we
keep this as a pre-alpha project or drop it? If we keep it, what are
the plans?

2. 6lowpan
- The current status and plans for moving to beta stage.

3. TyMO
- Plans for moving to beta stage

I propose this nomenclature to describe the status of various net2 projects:

Supported/released - the code has been tested extensively by at least
two different wg members, tested on at least two hardware platforms,
there is at least one of user documentation/manual/TEP describing the
protocol. The protocol preferably also works on simulation and comes
with a set of files to do the simulation.

Beta - Some non-trivial testing has been done, at least one hardware
platform. The code has been committed to tos/lib/net/projectname. Test
programs are also available.

Alpha - The code compiles, the design seems sound, some simple test
cases on at least one hardware platform
