[Tinyos-help] General question on sensor callback

[Alexandre Bergel]

Hello,

A sensor is inherently asynchronous. You ask a sensor for a  
measurement, and you wait for a callback that notifies you.
Anyone knows how long this usually takes ? Is there any way to  
measure the time taken to get a notification ?

Does it make sense to do some computation while waiting for a  
callback from a sensor ?

Sorry if this question looks naive. I am new in sensor networking :-)

Cheers,
Alexandre
