Talks
- On the Limits of Effective Micro-Energy Harvesting on Mobile
CRFID Sensors.
Delivered at the International Conference on Mobile Systems, Applications, and Services (Mobisys), San Francisco, CA. June 17, 2010. PDF
These slides are very light on content. Most of the exposition was verbal.
- Towards Autonomously-Powered CRFIDs.
Delivered at the Workshop on Power Aware Computing and Systems (HotPower), Big Sky, Montana. October 10, 2009. PDF
- CCCP: Secure Remote Storage for Computational RFIDs.
Delivered at the USENIX Security Symposium, Montreal, Canada. August 13, 2009. PDF
- Getting things done on computational RFIDs with energy-aware checkpointing and voltage-aware scheduling.
Delivered at the I3P Consortium Meeting, Johns Hopkins University. January 28, 2009. PDF
The slides are heavily based on those delivered by Ben Ransford at the USENIX "HotPower" workshop, December 2008. His PDF is available here.
