<![CDATA[Current quality assessment methods of water parameters are mainly laboratory based, require fresh supplies of chemicals, trained staff and are time consuming. Sensor networks are great alternatives for such requirements. We present a practical application of wireless networks: a remote water monitoring system running TinyOS. The contents of several chemicals in the water are sensed and transmitted. The sensor data are collected and transmitted via ZigBee and GPRS. Instead of focusing on theoretic issues such as routing algorithms, network lifetime and so on, we investigate special techniques involved in the implementation of the system while employing TinyOS and its special programming language.]]>
