The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method that utilizes a timer to break work into intervals,
traditionally 25 minutes in length, separated by short breaks. This technique aims to increase productivity
and focus by taking breaks at regular intervals. There is a growing body of research that explores the
impact of the Pomodoro Technique on various aspects of work and productivity.

In a study by Pittelkow et al. (2014), the productivity limits and potentials of the principles of conservation
agriculture were investigated. While this study did not directly examine the Pomodoro Technique, it
provides insights into the potential productivity benefits of alternative work methods and time manage-
ment strategies.

In a different context, Carnes et al. (2015) conducted a randomized, controlled trial to evaluate the effect
of an intervention to break the gender bias habit for faculty at one institution. Although this study focused
on gender bias in academic settings, it highlights the importance of interventions aimed at improving
work habits and productivity, which could be relevant to the implementation of the Pomodoro Technique
in organizational settings.

Furthermore, a study by Bhui et al. (2016) explored perceptions of work stress causes and effective
interventions in employees working in public, private, and non-governmental organizations. While not
directly related to the Pomodoro Technique, this study provides insights into work-related stress and
potential interventions, which can inform the application of time management methods such as the
Pomodoro Technique in addressing workplace stress and productivity.

The Pomodoro Technique can also be related to the concept of energy efficiency in work and distributed
systems. For instance, Orgerie, Assunção, and Lefèvre (2014) conducted a survey on techniques for
improving the energy efficiency of large-scale distributed systems. Similarly, Liu et al. (2018) proposed
an energy-efficient ant colony system for virtual machine placement in cloud computing. These studies
emphasize the importance of optimizing work processes and resource allocation, which aligns with the
underlying principles of the Pomodoro Technique.

While the literature review has provided valuable insights into the potential benefits of the Pomodoro
Technique and its relevance to work productivity, there are still knowledge gaps that warrant further
research. Future studies could investigate the long-term effects of implementing the Pomodoro Technique
in different work settings, as well as its impact on employee well-being and job satisfaction. Additionally,
research could explore the potential synergies between the Pomodoro Technique and emerging technolo-

gies, such as AI planning and robotic platforms, to further enhance productivity and efficiency in the
workplace. Addressing these knowledge gaps can contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of
the Pomodoro Technique and its implications for work productivity and well-being.
