摘要
Development and debugging support is a prerequisite for the adoption of intermittently operating energy-harvesting computers. This work identifies and characterizes intermittence-specific debugging challenges that are unaddressed by existing debugging solutions. This work addresses these challenges with the Energy-Interference-Free Debugger (EDB), the first debugging solution for intermittent systems. This article describes EDB's co-designed hardware and software implementation and shows its value in several debugging tasks on a real RF-powered energy-harvesting device.
