sensys-reproducibility
Use when making a SenSys result reproducible across a different testbed — capturing energy-measurement method, hardware and firmware provenance, sensor ground-truth protocol, and deployment conditions while the testbed is still live, and deciding early which traces and firmware can legally and safely ship.

# SenSys Reproducibility
A SenSys result is reproducible when someone on **different hardware** can understand — and, from
your traces, re-obtain — your numbers. The threat is not messy code; it is **provenance that
evaporates when the deployment ends**. Energy measured without its method, accuracy scored
against forgotten ground truth, and firmware whose toolchain is unrecorded cannot be reproduced
at any price once the testbed is torn down. Capture it while the nodes are still powered.
## Capture it live, not later
| Provenance | Capture while live | Why it cannot be reconstructed |
|---|---|---|
| **Energy method** | Instrument model, sampling rate, integration boundaries, sleep floor | A stored current number loses its method; "42 µA" of what phases? |
| **Hardware** | MCU/SoC part + clock, sensor config, radio + TX power, board revision, battery/harvester spec | A later "same board" is rarely bit-identical |
