SCAR: Sensor
Context-aware Adaptive Routing Protocol
Sensor devices are being embedded in all sorts of items including
vehicles, furniture but also animal and human bodies through health
monitors and tagging techniques.
The collection of the information generated by these devices is a
challenging task as the data results in enormous amounts and the
sensors have scarce resources (especially in terms of energy for the
forwarding of the data). Fortunately, the data is often delay tolerant
and its delivery to the sinks is, in most cases, not time critical.
We devise a Sensor Context-Aware Routing protocol (SCAR), which
exploits movement and resource prediction techniques to smartly forward
data towards the right direction at any point in time. In order to cope
with the possibly frequent sensor faults, we also adopt a multi-path
routing approach which increases the reliability.

We are currently simulating the performance of SCAR in large scale
scenarios with COOJA.
The implementation of SCAR for Contiki
will be released soon.
