The method presented in \cite{SOPXM09} presents a novel P2P overlay for Energy Level discovery in a sensornet. However, this solution is not dynamic, since requires periodical restructuring. In particular, it is not able to support neither join of sensor\_nodes with energy level out of the ranges supported by the existing p2p overlay nor leave of \emph{empty} overlay\_peers to which no sensor\_nodes are currently associated. On this purpose and based on the efficient P2P method presented in \cite{SPSTMT10}, we design a dynamic P2P overlay for Energy Level discovery in a sensornet, the so-called SART (Sensors' Autonomous Range Tree). The adaptation of the P2P index presented in \cite{SPSTMT10} guarantees the best-known dynamic query performance of the above operation. We experimentally verify this performance, via the D-P2P-Sim simulator (D-P2P-Sim is publicly available at http://code.google.com/p/d-p2p-sim/). %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1209.5430v1
