The 2025-Jun-10 meeting will host Dr. Jacob Sorber at 18:30:

Learning to compute without reliable power

"The Internet of Things has a battery problem. We simply can’t afford to recharge, replace, and dispose of trillions of batteries. Batteryless computing offers hope of a more sustainable future with devices that can be deployed maintenance-free for decades, but they are difficult to design, program, test, and deploy, due to frequent and unpredictable power failures. This talk will explore lessons learned from two decades of research on intermittently-powered batteryless systems and what we’re doing to day to make batteryless systems a practical reality."
