This project focuses on enabling correct and efficient software execution on non-volatile processors (NVP) for energy harvesting powered embedded systems. NVPs work with unstable harvested energy sources vital for applications such as wearable devices and the Internet of Things (IoT). Software specifically optimized for NVPs is important in that it allows an NVP to function correctly and is key for realizing embedded systems that are energy efficient, user-friendly, and environmentally-friendly. Compared with current devices that need regular maintenance, this project will enable a new class of maintenance free NVP-based embedded devices. Addressing a critical technology gap as it enables NVP-based embedded systems, the techniques developed in this project will provide tools to automatically transform existing NVP software. In addition to the education and training opportunities this research will allow, the success of this project will enable an energy-efficient, reliable, and resilient NVP solution that provides cumulative execution for energy harvesting embedded systems making small energy harvesting based embedded devices more practical across a wide range of applications, including healthcare, and military innovation and technology.

该项目的重点是在能量收集驱动的嵌入式系统的非易失性处理器 (NVP) 上实现正确、高效的软件执行。 NVP 使用不稳定的采集能源，这对于可穿戴设备和物联网 (IoT) 等应用至关重要。专门针对 NVP 进行优化的软件非常重要，因为它可以让 NVP 正常运行，并且是实现节能、用户友好和环保的嵌入式系统的关键。与当前需要定期维护的设备相比，该项目将实现新型免维护的基于 NVP 的嵌入式设备。该项目开发的技术将解决一个关键的技术差距，因为它支持基于 NVP 的嵌入式系统，将提供自动转换现有 NVP 软件的工具。 除了这项研究将提供的教育和培训机会之外，该项目的成功还将实现节能、可靠和有弹性的 NVP 解决方案，该解决方案为能量收集嵌入式系统提供累积执行，使基于能量收集的小型嵌入式设备在跨领域更加实用广泛的应用，包括医疗保健、军事创新和技术。
