SOL: An end-to-end solution for real-world remote monitoring systems

This paper introduces SOL, which is both an efficient data representation for sensor measurements and network statistics, and a complete low-power wireless sensor management system that builds around it. A SOL system consists of multiple low-power wireless mesh networks in which motes connected to sensors and actuators send data to a single server. It offers multi-tier data replication and the associated data recovery. SOL is used in 3 pilot deployments for micro-climate monitoring, building automation and agriculture applications. In conjunction with Metronome Systems' NeoMote and Manager devices, SOL is a turn-key ready-to-deploy end-to-end system.
