OSU Testbed Topology Authored By Mukundan Sridharan and Anish Arora on 03/09/2004 This note describes a topology for deploying 116 XSM motes/Stargates for the Echelon Testbed. The requirement for the topology is to allow experiments of two specific Echelon configurations. A tier-1 configuration of 100 XSM mote standard horizontal chapter experiment. A tier-2 configuration of 116 Stargate experiment. The Testbed topology is made of smaller table units.

Design of a Wireless Sensor Network Platform for Detecting Rare, Random, and Ephemeral Events Authored By Prabal Dutta, Mike Grimme, Anish Arora, Steven Bibyk, and David Culler on 01/30/2005 This paper presents the design of the extreme Scale Mote, a new sensor network platform for reliably detecting and classifying, and quickly reporting, rare, random, and ephemeral events in a large scale, long-lived, and re-task-able manner. This new mote was designed for the ExScal project which seeks to demonstrate a 10,000 node network capable of discriminating civilians, soldiers and vehicles, spread out over a 10km2 area, with node lifetimes approaching 1,000 hours of continuous operation on two AA alkaline batteries. This application posed unique functional, usability, scalability, and robustness requirements which could not be met with existing hardware, and therefore motivated the design of a new platform.
