This paper introduces power failure immunity (PFI), an essential program execution property
for energy harvesting systems to achieve efficient intermittent computation. PFI ensures …

Current peripheral execution approaches for intermittently powered systems require full
access to the internal hardware state for checkpointing or rely on application-level energy …

Abstract Battery-powered, ultra-low-power embedded devices are often limited by the size
and maintenance costs of batteries, giving rise to battery-less devices and the emergence of …

Energy harvesting promises to power billions of Internet-of-Things devices without being
restricted by battery life. The energy output of harvesters is typically tiny and highly unstable …

Self-powered intermittent systems waste considerable I/O energy because volatile I/O
modules repeatedly issue identical operations under power failure conditions, and also due …

Intermittent systems enable batteryless devices to operate through energy harvesting by
leveraging the complementary characteristics of volatile (VM) and non-volatile memory …

Concurrency control allows multiple tasks that share data objects to be concurrently
executed in a serializable order, thus significantly improving computation progress …

Electrophoretic displays are ideal for self-powered systems, but currently require an
uninterrupted power supply to carry out the full display update cycle. Although sensible for …

Program execution on intermittently powered Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices must ensure
forward progress in the presence of frequent power failures. A general solution is intermittent …

Energy harvesting devices powered by ambient energies, instead of batteries, have been
drawn lots of attention due to their advantages of energy saving, easy deployment without …
