Tiny energy harvesting computers tap into the sun, radio waves, vibration, and other sources to power all their sensing, computing, and communication tasks. By leaving batteries behind, these devices can function maintenance-free, potentially for decades, enabling numerous applications in the Internet-of-Things. These battery-free devices can lose power at any point because of fluctuations in energy availability, which makes programming, debugging, and deployment challenging. The goal of this project is to develop the systems and tools that make these devices resilient to power failures, dependable, easier to program, and able to function in unpredictable environmental and energy conditions.The intellectual merits of this project are focused on improving adaptivity, programmability, reliability, and applicability of intermittent computing devices. Three complementary research thrusts are pursued: 1) development of a rigorous classification of energy harvesting environments built on identifying unique energy modes, aiding in application design; 2) prototyping a novel recognition circuit for anticipating changes in the energy harvesting environment or energy mode based on remanence decay; 3) development of a task-based programming language with built-in adaptation semantics leveraging energy modes and the recognition circuitry with accompanying low overhead runtime system.The work in this project develops adaptive systems and tooling for intermittent computers that will enable even novices to build reliable and long-lived sensor devices. By making application development easier, and improving availability (and reliability), these systems will positively impact applications in healthcare (wearable and body sensor networks), defense, ecology, horticulture, infrastructure, wildlife tracking, space exploration, and many other areas where long-term, low cost, massive scale sensing is essential. All hardware, software, and collected environmental profiles and energy traces will be made freely available, along with documentation and tutorials. These project artifacts will be stored in a dedicated repository for scientists, educators, hobbyists, and industry to access and use. This repository will be maintained for at least three years after the duration of the project.

微小的能量收集计算机将其带入太阳，无线电波，振动和其他来源，以动力其所有感应，计算和通信任务。通过将电池抛在后面，这些设备可以无效维护，这可能会在数十年内实现，从而可以在The Internet中进行众多应用。由于能源可用性的波动，这些无电池设备在任何时候都可能会损失电源，这使得编程，调试和部署具有挑战性。该项目的目的是开发使这些设备能够韧性故障的系统和工具，可靠，更易于编程，并且能够在不可预测的环境和能源条件下运作。该项目的智力优点集中在提高适应性，可编程性，可靠性，可靠性和间歇性计算式启用的适用性。提出了三个互补的研究推力：1）建立在识别独特的能源模式的基础上的精力收集环境中的严格分类，并有助于应用程序设计； 2）原型制定新的识别电路，以预测基于re漫画衰减的能量收集环境或能量模式的变化； 3）开发具有内置适应语义的基于任务的编程语言，利用能量模式和识别电路，并带有伴随的低间接费用运行时系统。该项目中的工作开发了自适应系统和间歇性计算机的工具，这些计算机甚至将使新手甚至可以构建可靠和长期使用的传感器设备。通过使应用程序开发更加轻松，并提高可用性（和可靠性），这些系统将对医疗保健（可穿戴和身体传感器网络），国防，生态学，园艺，园艺，基础设施，野生动植物跟踪，太空探索以及许多其他长期，低成本，低成本，巨大规模传感的领域产生积极影响。将免费提供所有硬件，软件和收集的环境概况和能量痕迹，以及文档和教程。这些项目工件将存储在专门的存储库中，以供科学家，教育者，业余爱好者和行业供您使用和使用。 该存储库将在项目持续时间后至少三年维护。 （https://gitlab.com/ka-moamoa/battery-free-sensing）奖反映了NSF的法定任务，并且使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准，被认为值得通过评估来获得支持。
