Abstract

In this paper we present a virtual memory system for sensor networks that uses flash-memory to extend the amount of RAM available on each node. By analyzing access traces from simulation tools it creates an efficient memory layout that makes virtual memory viable despite the resource constraints typical for sensor networks.
