Viptos: A Graphical Development and Simulation Environment for TinyOS-Based Wireless Sensor Networks

Overview This paper describes ViPTOS (Visual Ptolemy and TinyOS), an integrated graphical development and simulation environment for TinyOS-based wireless sensor networks. TinyOS is a component-based, event-driven runtime environment designed for wireless sensor networks. Viptos allows networked embedded systems developers to construct block and arrow diagrams to create TinyOS programs from any standard library of TinyOS components written in nesC, a C-based programming language. Viptos automatically transforms the diagram into a nesC program that can be compiled and downloaded from within the graphical environment onto any TinyOS-supported target platform. This paper presents the authors' experiences with integrating the nesC/TinyOS/TOSSIM and Ptolemy II programming and execution models.
