....networks are lossy, transient, and irregular. TCP IP requires endto end packet loss rates of under 2 ; in comparison, sensor networks often have loss rates of 30 or more. Empirical data shows that packet loss rates vary widely, leading to dynamic network topologies, even in stationary networks [15]. Wireless protocols such as 802.11 are intended for mobile systems, such as laptops, with lifetimes of hours, but sensor networks must last for years. This requires low power radios and novel protocols. Motes have very limited computational resources; the most recent Berkeley platform has 4K of ....
