Hmmm. The Getting Started guides are intended for people who have
hardware in their hands. If you'd like to just learn about tinyos
without actually doing anything, check out this paper:
The Emergence of Networking Abstractions and Techniques in TinyOS,
Philip Levis, Sam Madden, David Gay, Joe Polastre, Robert Szewczyk,
Alec Woo, Eric Brewer and David Culler, Proceedings of the First
USENIX/ACM Symposium on Networked Systems Design and Implementation
(NSDI 2004).

i haven't noticed that one! i ve just downloaded it and i ll check it ;-)
any other good paper for newbies? ;-P
If you'd like to get your hands more into it, try this:
- download and install tinyos
done that;-)
- read the tutorial over and use the platform 'pc' rather than any,
say, mica2 platform; skip to the tutorial lesson regarding tossim if
you'd like to see how to run it
ehmm.. thats what i am working on;-))
ouuuuuuuuf!
many thanks for your answer!

Hello all...
i am kind of confused... totally confused...
i am intrested in tinyos and nesC. In particular i would like to learn
some
things about these 2 topics and then maybe write an app to test my
earnings... I tried to start from the official site www.tinyos.net.
There,
the first thing i realised was that they "redirect" you to the links of
Moteiv Telos and Corssbow Mica to "get started".. But if you read them,
you
learn some thing about the hardware and not learn some usefull stuf... if
then, you start reading the lessons from the tutorial you ll find some
code
of nesC apps .... but then you realize that you dont know not even a
singe
command of this programming language. if you try to learn nesC...you ll
find
(thats the only official thing i found till now) only a reference (nesC
1.1
Language Reference Manual)... if you try to learn about tossim, you ll
run
onto zigbe and beacon based algorithms...things i dont even heard before!
Maybe i haven't done a proper search..maybe i ve tried to read from the
end...i dont know..
I am not afraid of reading and searching but please tell me from where
should i start? what are the documents i should read and what is the
proper
order-cohesion??
Many many thanks!
