Hi, I'm looking at building an operating environment for a unique sensor network setup for some multi-sensing MEMs sensor hardware and single link (power and data) physical layer that is currently being developed.
I've decided to go with TinyOS because (among other reasons): a) It's designed for sensor networks, and thus exhibits the right properties I desire (e.g. low power etc.); and b) The component/wiring based nature of it suits the way I want to develop this system Now, the hardware that the nodes in this sensor network will use will probably vary, two processors in particular that have been mentioned are MSP430 (well suited to TinyOS!) and PPC (on a Virtex 5). Also, at uni we have a heap of HCS12's, which I'm very familiar with using. So ideally, I would like to do my initial development work on the HCS12 until the hardware is nailed down more concretely (it's a bit up in the air at the moment). In light of this I have a few questions: - Is there an authoritive source / tutorial for how to port TinyOS to a different platform / CPU (I've had a bit of a look around the TinyOS Wiki and the "TinyOS Programming" book, as well as a Google search, but nothing obvious pops up)? - How long / how much effort would it take to port to a different CPU? - Has anyone done any work on porting to HCS12 / 68HC11 or similar?
