Abstract
Moore's law has led to a new class of computing device, wireless sensor networks. Made up of many nodes, most of which have very limited energy and resources, sensor networks have the potential to transform a wide range of fields, such as structural health monitoring, resource management, scientific research, and public health. This different application pull, combined with extreme power limitations, leads a sensor node operating system to take very different approaches than traditional computing classes.
