Additional information

<02>This paper presents an alternative operating system structure for wireless sensor networks, based around active components and synchronous channels. This structure is more firmly based in process algebras and high-level languages, and so offers a significantly higher level of programming support than is the case with any other operating system in this domain. The approach separates concerns of concurrency, sharing, and wiring, and allows them to be defined and combined orthogonally. Extensive empirical results demonstrate that the new model is both simpler and more efficient than traditional approaches of TinyOS and NesC.
