The Stanford Information Networks Group (SING) researches data-centric networked systems. Currently, much of its work deals with low-power sensor networks, including measuring the behavior of low-power wireless, network protocols and architecture, and operating systems. It also includes work in network infrastructures for virtual worlds.

Documentation
Programming TinyOS is short (140 page) introduction to TinyOS programming. Unlike the TinyOS tutorials, which are a brief introduction to get you started, or TEPs, which describe parts of TinyOS 2.0, Programming TinyOS digs into nesC and how you can use it to build TinyOS applications. Except for a few fictional components in the beginning, almost every concept has a TinyOS 2.0 implementation as an example.
Software
Our software tool for measuring and analyzing low-level properties wireless networks - SWAT - can be downloaded here. For more information, visit the SWAT homepage.
We are actively participating in the TinyOS Alliance working groups: the best place to find most of our efforts is in the TinyOS CVS repository.
Data Sets
We have been collecting large data sets on 802.15.4 behavior from a variety of platforms and environments. We are still in the midst of sifting through the data, but plan to make it generally accessible in consistent formats once we have done so.
