Abstract
When looking at the new devices and operating modes that will emerge to comprise the swarm of sensors, we must consider the networking layer that will connect them to the cloud and the Internet at large. IPv6 and 6LoWPAN have been proposed and studied for wireless sensor networks, but new sensor types, such as energy-harvesting, millimeter-scale, and transmit only nodes, as well as new deployment strategies for a city wide scale may require rethinking this approach. We believe that IPv6 is still viable, and in fact quite useful, for this application. However, how to fully integrate these new devices raises challenges for future deployments.
