Welcome!

Complementing the topics of ACM SenSys 2022, this workshop will bring researchers together to explore the challenges, issues and opportunities in the research, design, and engineering of energy-harvesting, energy-neutral and intermittent sensing systems. These are an enabling technology for future applications in smart energy, transportation, environmental monitoring and smart cities. Innovative solutions in hardware for energy scavenging, adaptive algorithms, and power management policies are needed to enable either uninterrupted and intermittent operation.

High quality technical articles are solicited, describing advances in sensing systems powered by energy harvesting, aswell as those which describe practical deployments and implementation experiences. ENSsys also offers a platform for innovative future directions by soliciting position papers.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Power management concepts, algorithms and circuits for energy-harvesting sensing systems
• Hardware and software concepts, algorithms and circuits for intermittent computing
• Middleware and services supporting interoperability between zero-energy networks
• Resource management and operating system support for energy-harvesting sensing systems
• Network-wide distributed energy management (e.g. routing, adaptive duty cycling, etc.)
• Communication in intermittent-power domain
• Online measurement of energy intake and consumption
• Predicting energy intake and consumption
• Ensuring reliable operation in energy-harvesting sensor systems
• Modelling, simulation and tools for effective design of future energy harvesting sensing systems
• Architectures and standards for energy-neutral, power-neutral or intermittent sensing systems
• Internet of (battery-less) things
• Experience with real-world deployments and innovative applications

We look forward to seeing you at ENSsys 2022!
