Abstract
In the sensor network, many tiny nodes construct Ad-Hoc network using wireless interface. As this type of system consists of thousands of nodes, managing each sensor node in real world after deploying them is very difficult. In order to install the sensor network successfully, it is necessary to verify its software using a simulator beforehand. In fact Sensor network simulators require high fidelity and timing accuracy to be used as a design, implementation, and evaluation tool of wireless sensor networks. Cycle-accurate, instruction-level simulation is the known solution for those purposes. In this paper, we developed an instruction-level sensor network simulator for Telos sensor node as named TeloSlM. It consists of MSP430 and CC2420. Recently, Telos is the most popular mote because MSP430 can consume the minimum energy in recent motes and CC2420 can support Zigbee. So that TeloSlM can provide the easy way for the developers to verify software. It is cycle-accurate in instruction-level simulator that is indispensable for OS and the specific functions and can simulate scalable sensor network at the same time. In addition, TeloSlM provides the GUI Tool to show result easily.
