This seminar examines fundamental and emerging concepts in concurrency and distribution by studying seminal papers and recent research results. Broad topics of interest include models of concurrency, mobile computing, parallel architectures, sensor networks, distributed algorithms, and specialized protocols. Each semester, the seminar emphasizes different themes reflecting the current research interests of the participants.

The theme of this semester's seminar is Wireless Sensor Networks. We will read and discuss papers from recent major conferences on mobile, wireless, and sensor networks and systems. These conferences include:

* [http://sensys.acm.org/ SenSys]

Abstract
We describe Neutron, a version of the TinyOS operating system that efficiently recovers from memory safety bugs.
Where existing schemes reboot an entire node on an error, Neutron’s compiler and runtime extensions divide programs
into recovery units and reboot only the faulting unit. The TinyOS kernel itself is a recovery unit: a kernel safety violation
appears to applications as the processor being unavailable for 10–20 milliseconds. Neutron further minimizes safety violation cost by supporting “precious” state that persists across reboots. Application data, time synchronization state, and routing tables
can all be declared as precious. Neutron’s reboot sequence conservatively checks that precious state is not the source of
a fault before preserving it. Together, recovery units and precious state allow Neutron to reduce a safety violation’s cost
to time synchronization by 94% and to a routing protocol by 99:5%. Neutron also protects applications from losing data.
Neutron provides this recovery on the very limited resources of a tiny, low-power microcontroller.
