Abstract

TinyOS2 (TOS2) is the state of the art operating system for wireless sensor network (WSN) programming. There are a number of testbeds and simulation tools for checking functional correctness and a few integrated development environments (IDEs) that support graphical user interface (GUI) and power profiling of WSN simulation as well. All these systems and environments are tailored towards design optimization of WSNs subject to functional correctness and energy conservation. Unfortunately, all these approaches lack self-contained support for energy harvesting systems (EHSs) which is the state of the art technique for tackling the energy conservation problem. Here, we present the design and implementation of a self-contained X-in-the-loop approach. TOSPIE2 is an Eclipse plug-in that integrates TOS2 installation and compilation support, power profiles and EHS efficiency in simulation and measurement.
