Abstract :
We investigate application of agreement protocols tolerating malicious failures in sensor networks. We identify several scenarios where agreement can be used, and report on our experience with implementing an agreement protocol. The ultimate goal is to implement a secure and energy-efficient agreement protocol for sensor networks
