Enabling Event-Driven Intermittent Computing for Batteryless Sensors

 

Asst. Prof. Dr. K. Sinan Yıldırım
Ege University

Tiny batteryless sensors promise maintenance free operation for decades, providing swarm scale intelligence in applications from healthcare to building monitoring. These devices operate intermittently because of unpredictable, dynamic energy harvesting environments; and they fail when energy is scarce. Even though state-of-the-art programming techniques preserve forward progress of computation, they overlooked the event-driven and time-sensitive nature of sensing applications. In this talk, I will present a summary of our latest work on enabling event-driven programming for batteryless sensors. I will also provide an overview of new research opportunities in this emerging domain.
