Technical perspectives

Architecture and execution.

Start with reducing device exposure, then explore how application logic can move between hardware and evolve throughout a device’s life.

Portable execution

The Next IoT Cycle

WebAssembly at the Bottom of the Stack

October 2025 18 pages PDF

Explore how WebAssembly can bring portable, isolated application logic to microcontroller-class devices. The paper covers a lightweight runtime, hardware I/O interfaces, toolchain constraints and the role of lifecycle management in delivering and maintaining applications over the air.

Understand the engineering choices behind portable execution and what they mean for maintainability, hardware flexibility and long-lived IoT products.
