ii iv vTo my parents vi vii Acknowledgements I would first and foremost extend my whole-hearted gratitude to my advisors, An-drea Arpaci-Dusseau and Remzi Arpaci-Dusseau. Andrea and Remzi are the reason that I had the opportunity for this exceptional Ph.D. journey. To this day, I still re-member the moment when they took me as their student and the joy and hope in my heart. Andrea and Remzi have showed me what systems research is like and how much fun and challenging it can be. Before this journey with them, I had always liked and believed in the beauty of mathematics and theory. My initial interest in systems research happened when I took Remzi’s Advanced Operating Systems

Sensor network software update management: a survey By Chih-Chieh Han, Ram Kumar, Roy Shea and Mani Srivastava*,† Software management is a critical task in the system administration of enterprise-scale networks. Enterprise-scale networks that have traditionally comprised of large clusters of workstations are expanding to include low-power ad hoc wireless sensor networks (WSN). The existing tools for software updates in workstations cannot be used with the severely resource-constrained sensor nodes. In this article, we survey the software update techniques in WSNs. We base our discussion around a conceptual model for the software update tools in WSNs. Three components of this model that we study are the execution environment at the sensor nodes, the software distribution protocol in the network and optimization of transmitted updates. We present the design space of each component and discuss in-depth the trade-offs that need to be considered in making a particular design choice. The discussion is interspersed with references to deployed systems that highlight the design choices.

This thesis presents CraneTracker, a multi-modal sensing and communication system for monitoring migratory species at the continental level. By exploiting the robust and extensive cellular infrastructure across the continent, traditional mobile wireless sensor networks can be extended to enable reliable, low-cost monitoring of migratory species. The developed multi-tier architecture yields ecologists with unconventional behavior in-formation not furnished by alternative tracking systems at such a large scale and for a low-cost. The simulation, development and implementation of the CraneTracker soft-ware system is presented. The system is shown effective through multiple proxy deploy-

I first thank my thesis advisors Thiemo Voigt and Adam Dunkels for being my excellent advisors, and also for being the great colleagues you still are. Thiemo and Adam have complemented each other superbly, giving me feedback, perspectives, insights, and having made every single new venture truly fun. My deepest thanks also go to my professor Per Gunningberg, Uppsala University. Per has in a seemingly easy way spotted erroneous assumptions, has valued my research contributions, and has connected my own work with another broader world of research. I want to thank all colleagues in the Networked Embedded Systems group:

Abstract: Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are two recently-developed technologies that uniquely function without xed infrastructure support, and sense at scales, resolutions, and durations previously not possible. While both offer great potential in many applications, developing software for these types of networks is extremely dffcult, preventing their wide-spread use. Three primary challenges are (1) the high level of dynamics within the network in terms of changing wireless links and node hardware con gurations, (2) the wide variety of hardware present in these networks, and (3) the extremely limited computational and energy resources available. Until now, the burden of handling these issues was put on the software application developer. This dissertation presents three novel programming models and middleware systems that address these challenges: Limone, Agilla, and Servilla. Limone reliably handles high levels of dynamics within MANETs. It does this through lightweight coordination primitives that make minimal assumptions about network connectivity. Agilla enables self-adaptive WSN applications via the integration of mobile agent and tuple space programming models, which is critical given the continuously changing network. It is the rst system to successfully demonstrate the feasibility of using mobile agents and tuple spaces within

"... We design and implement FD-Buffer, a buffer manager for database systems running on flash-based disks. Unlike magnetic disks, flash media has an inherent read-write asymmetry: writes involve expen-sive erase operations and as a result are usually much slower than reads. Therefore, we address this as ..."

We develop a new replacement policy in which we sepa-rate clean and dirty pages into two pools. The size ratio of the two pools is automatically
