Nesc – Building software like hardware • Nesc is: • Component based software extension to C • Provides separation of construction and composition • Component behavior described in terms of interfaces • Structure around bidirectional event based interfaces • Static compile-time optimization eliminates overhead
Real World Apps… • What have we done with this stuff?
Cory Energy Monitoring/Mgmt System • 50 nodes on single floor • 5 level ad hoc net • 30 sec sampling • 250K samples to database over 6 weeks

Multi-dimensional node tracking • Track unmodified “evader” through a network of magnetic sensors. • In-network processing to estimate planar position of vehicle • Geographic multi-hop networking to route data to automated camera • Camera controlled to track vehicle • Video: demo.mpeg
Next-Generation Nodes • Integrated processing, storage, communication and sensing onto a single silicon die • Greatly reduce manufacturing cost • Improve efficiency through incorporation of specialized accelerators
General Architecture • Single CPU for Base band, OS and Application • Shared system resources can be divided between system components dynamically • High bandwidth, flexible interfaces can be exposed across system components • Allows applications access to fine-grained system control • Hardware accelerators to support key sensor network challenges • Communication, synchronization, power management, concurrency • Shared memory interface model
Spec Layout 2.5mm • IO Pads • RAM blocks • MMU logic • Debug logic • ADC • AVR CPU Core • RF Frequency Synthesizer • Transmitter .25 um CMOS Core Area only 50% full…
