Contiki provides a simple -event-driven kernel with optional preemptive multithreading, -interprocess communication using message passing signals, a dynamic -process structure and support for loading and unloading programs, -native TCP/IP support using the uIP TCP/IP stack, and a graphical -subsystem with either direct graphic support for directly connected -terminals or networked virtual display with VNC or Telnet. - -Contiki is written in the C programming language and is freely -available as open source under a BSD-style license. More information -about Contiki can be found at the Contiki home page: -http://www.sics.se/~adam/contiki/ - -The ESB (Embedded Sensor Board) is a prototype wireless sensor network -device developed at Freie Universität Berlin. The ESB consists of a -Texas Instruments MSP430 low-power microcontroller with 2k RAM and 60k -flash ROM, a TR1001 radio transceiver, a 32k serial EEPROM, an RS232 port, a -JTAG port, a beeper, and a number of sensors (passive IR, active IR -sender/receiver, vibration/tilt, microphone, temperature). - -The Contiki/ESB port brings support for TCP/IP, loadable programs -(over-the-air programming), event-based multitasking, and cooperative -multi-threading (preemptive threading is implemented but not yet fully -tested) to the ESB.
