It depends on how you define a node. If you define it to be just a CPU, you can look up the numbers on the datasheet. You can find out how many cycles it takes to execute an instruction, how fast the clock runs, power supply voltage, ... If you define a node to be the set of support components in addition to a CPU (a more realistic definition of a node), you might be spending a lot of energy even without performing any computation or communication. - om_p _______________________________________________ Tinyos-help mailing list [email protected] https://www.millennium.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tinyos-help
