Hello all.

We are currently working on a thesis project which involves implementing two
routing protocols in TinyOS 2, for comparison in a WSN setting.
We have been through all the tutorials and support-pages, but we still have
a
few questions that we hope someone will be able to help us with. We
apologize
in advance, if we may have missed the answer on an existing page. Here goes:


Questions regarding the contrib/cedt (powertossim 2) project:
1. Is there a way to access the current energy level from within a nesC
program?
2. Are there any results as to how accurate the power modeling is?

Questions in general about TinyOS 2:
3. How would you turn the mote "off" for X amount of time from within a nesC
program? Aka. have it power down all components untill X amount of time has
passed.
4. Is there a place where you can see all global variable declarations such
as
TOS_NODE_ID, which are available from the nesC code?
5. Is there a way to pass parameters to the individual motes when using
TOSSIM.
In particular we are interested in having exact x,y coordinates for each
mote,
which we want to access from the nesC code. How would we best go about
accessing simulation parameters from within the program?
6. Are there any "topology generators" available which are able to generate
large simulation setups (500-1000 motes)
7. Is there a way to specify topologies, by specifying only coordinates and
the
radio radius (in cm, m or strength of some sort), where the simulator will
automatically simulate connections for a mote by which other motes are
inside
the broadcast radius. If so, is there also a way to change the broadcast
radius
(radio strength) at runtime?

Regards
Elvar and Henrik
