IFRC: Interference-Aware Fair Rate Control
IFRC is a distributed congestion control scheme for wireless sensor networks. For a wireless network consisting of N nodes sending data to a single base station (many-to-one traffic pattern) over multiple hops, IFRC provides fair and efficient rate to all the flows in the network. IFRC has been implemented on Tmote Sky, a wireless sensor networks platform.

IFRC has been implemented on Tmote Sky and tested on 40 nodes on our testbed. Code for IFRC is available here.
Wisden: Wireless Sensor Network for Structural Health Monitoring
Wisden is a wireless sensor network based data acquisition system for structural health monitoring. Consisting of reliable data delivery, data synchronization and data compression schemes it provides support for data acquisition of vibration data up to 200Hz along 3-axes. Wisden had been deployed on a real building (which was shaken using hydraulic shakers) and a seismic test structure.
Experience gained from Wisden has resulted in Tenet, a new architecture for sensor networks. Wisden had now been developed as an application on Tenet architecture.
