Abstract [en]
Wireless Sensor nodes fall somewhere in between the single application devices that do
not need an operating system, and the more capable, general purpose devices with the
resources to run a traditional embedded operating system. Sensor node operating system
such as TinyOS, Contiki, MantisOS and SOS which is discussed in this paper exhibit
characteristics of both traditional embedded systems and general-purpose operating systems
providing a limited number of common services for application developers linking
software and hardware.
These common services typically include platform support, hardware management of sensors,
radios, and I/O buses and application construction etc. They also provide services
needed by applications which include task coordination, power management, adaptation
to resource constraints, and networking. The evaluation was concentrated on TinyOS
including an analysis on version 1.x and 2.x resource management and flexibility and its
operation with the other wireless sensor node operating systems.
