Work in Progress: Resourse-Aware Fault Localization in Large Sensor Networks

R. Mietz, K. Romer

Abstract

Sensor networks are exposed to hostile environments that may cause failures of single nodes and communication links which affect the whole network. Localizing the cause of the problem in space and time requires to collect diagnostic data from the network. Due to resource and energy constraints, however, it is not possible to continuously collect detailed diagnostic data from all nodes. We therefore propose an incremental approach where first data is logged to flash memory and later the user can pose a sequence of diagnostic queries with decreasing scope and increasing level of detail to pinpoint the cause of the problem.
