In a BLIP, pervasive IP has arrived
From Crossbow’s blog:
Back in March some researchers at UC Berkeley released an Open Source implementation of IPv6 running on TinyOS 2.x called BLIP (Berkeley Low-power Internet Protocol). BLIP is a work in progress. It is currently fully supported on the TelosB platform and works on MICAz when compiled in a memory-constrained mode. It is being folded into the TinyOS 2.x core with a slated release date of late August 2009. The version in contrib/berkeley/blip is the correct one to use, however, as that one will actually build without manually adding radio stack modifications that are still being negotiated. IRIS support is in the works as well with the initial port being done by European researchers Miklos Maroti and Lars Schor. An improved release candidate of BLIP is slated to be pushed into contrib as early as next week.
