 Introduction to Contiki
Contiki is an operating system for
– networked, memory-constrained systems(35KB of ROM and around
3K of RAM)
– focus on low-power wireless Internet of Things devices
– It is an Embedded operating system
Contiki_NG – OS for next generation IOT devices.

Things to Know for this lab

– Understand Contiki C-programming code.
– Compile the code.
– Deploy code on a sensor node. (Optional)
– Through serial output of the sensor node see the result. (Optional)
 Use of Makefile

• In order to run the code on the sensor node we need

make files telling the compiler how to compile the
programs for which specific platform.
 Commands for Compile and Run

• Goto the corresponding directory where the program is stored

• Compilation: make TARGET=native <file name>
• Execution : ./<filename>.native

• Reference Link – For LED Programming

 PROCESS(name, strname);

Implementing Process on Contiki

A Contiki process consists of two parts:

• a process control block
• a process thread.
structure of a process and protothread
PROCESS(name, strname); (PCB)
where,
• name - The variable name of the process structure.
• strname - The string representation of the process' name
• A process' thread contains the execution code of the
process.
• PROCESS_THREAD(name, ev, data)
where,
•name - The variable name of the process structure.
•ev - Event identifier sent to the thread during
invokation.
•data - Pointer to data passed to the thread during
invokation.
#include "contiki.h"
#include <stdio.h> PROCESS(example_process,"Example process");
AUTOSTART_PROCESSES(&example_process);
PROCESS_THREAD(example_process, ev, data)
{
PROCESS_BEGIN();
while(1)
{
PROCESS_WAIT_EVENT();
printf("Got event number %d\n", ev);
}
PROCESS_END();
}
