[Tinyos-help] A Scenario to study TinyOS and WSN

[Sankar Gorthi]

I could decrease the difficulty of your system by one step then. Surge  
already does the Temperature tracking over a Multi-hopped Wireless Sensor  
Network (WSN). The system consists of a base station to which all the  
motes write their data values to at regular intervals. The network is  
maintained dynamically and although updates slow down when the motes are  
moved for the network to be updated, once the neighbors etc are  
determined, the response becomes regular again.

I'd suggest writing your own Listen code (we used LabVIEW and MATLAB to  
read raw data from the serial port and then interpret the data) so that  
you can store the collected values in your database properly.

The same thing can be done to trigger events detected in your network.

Good luck,

Sankar.
