Abstract:

Wireless sensor networks are moving from academia to real world scenarios. This will involve, in the near future, the design and production of hardware platforms characterized by low-cost and small form factor. As a consequence, the amount of resources available on a single node, i.e. computing power, storage, and energy, will be even more constrained than today. This paper faces the problem of storing and executing an application that exceeds the memory resources available on a single node. The proposed solution is based on the idea of partitioning the application code into a number of opportunistically cooperating modules. Each node contributes to the execution of the original application by running a subset of the application tasks and providing service to the neighboring nodes.
