The communicating material is a new paradigm of Internet of Things. It is designed to perform efficient product control and ensure an information continuum all along the product life cycle. Therefore, storage of life cycle information and data dissemination in communicating materials are very important issues. This paper provides solutions for storing data on the material by systematic dissemination through integrated ultra-small wireless sensors nodes using counter-based broadcasting scheme, hop-counter and probabilistic storage mechanisms. Different algorithms are developed for non-localized and localized dissemination. The performances of our solutions are evaluated for non-segmented and then segmented data. Comparison results between storage mechanisms via simulation using Castalia/OMNeT++ show that probabilistic algorithm provides uniform and efficient data dissemination than hop-counter one for different density level.
