[Avrora] Providing ranging data to each simulated node

[Sarfraz Nawaz]

Hi all,

I am working with TinyOS implementing a localization algorithm. I have been
using Avrora for execution time measurements and energy consumption of some
floating point extensive code. Now I want to simulate a complete network of
mica2 nodes under Avrora.  However, my problem is that I have to provide
each node with ranging data i.e. a table that contains how many neighbors a
node has, what are their ids and distances. On Tossim I have written a
TinyViz plugin that takes a topology file, generates this data and then
feeds this data into each node by using certain ADC channels. I have also
written a TinyOS component, that reads this data and populates a distance
table inside the node. Since I want to take advantage of fine grained energy
consumption measurements available in Avrora, I want to run and test my code
in Avrora.

Can anyone provide on some pointers on how or where should I start looking
for if I intend to extend Avrora to incorporate the above mentioned
facility? Any help would be appreciated.

Regards
