📣 Banana slug history! For the first time, UCSC and #BaskinEngineering scientists have published a complete genome of the Pacific banana slug—our iconic mascot. This work was led by Baskin Engineering Professor @RussCorbett at @ucscgenomics. Read on:

Not only is the banana slug the endearing mascot for UC Santa Cruz — making the project fitting for campus researchers — but the slugs’ unique slime was a particularly challenging undertaking for...

I've been busy working with my colleagues to launch a new initiative called the UCSC AgTech Alliance, which just "went public" yesterday!
Exciting news! Faculty & researchers are launching the UCSC AgTech Alliance—a campus community bringing together people interested in ethical/responsible agtech for a sustainable future. #BaskinEngineering prof @cjosephsonful is co-inaugural director.

Using our model, we were able to achieve a 100+% increase in successful intermittent computing operations using our simulation framework. Once translated to real embedded systems, this could lead to significant improvements in the usability of batteryless electronics (6/n)

In this work, we created a deep learning model that takes in environmental data (like soil moisture, temperature, and electrical conductivity), and outputs a prediction of how much energy the soil battery will produce for a future time horizon.... (5/n)

Energy harvested from soil batteries is difficult to model because these are complex biological systems that respond to conditions like temperature, moisture content and soil type (3/n)

Intermittent computing is computing designed for non-constant, or intermittent execution, and is driven by the availability of harvested energy. The ability to effectively predict power income could be a game changer for intermittent computing.... (2/n)

One of the biggest challenges to wider adoption of environmental sensing networks is the lack of ubiquitous power infrastructure. You can't just plug electronics into the dirt.... but what if you could? (1/n)

New pet peeve: publishers that require figures/tables to be at the end of an article. Inline figures/tables are sooooo much more readable.
