Abstract

Current routing services for sensor networks are application-specific. They are pre-configured into nodes, and thus have difficulty in adapting to different applications and network conditions. This paper describes a framework to build programmable routing services for sensor networks. This framework includes a parameter space that identifies both common and different properties among routing services. With this parameter space, different routing services can be obtained with small programming effort. A programmable routing architecture is proposed to maintain this parameter space and support energy-efficient service deployment. This paper presents implementation details of this programmable framework and shows simulation results.
