SCOPE AND OVERVIEW
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today, energy efficiency is widely regarded as one of the biggest
technological and societal challenges for developing a more sustainable
world. The Internet - and more generally information and communication
technologies (ICT) - can play an essential role to achieve a more
sustainable energy use and to reduce our carbon footprint. On the one
hand, Internet is a significant energy consumer, and it is necessary to
redesign current Internet technologies, as well as network
architectures, devices and components, services and protocols to improve
energy efficiency. On the other hand, ICT is a key enabling technology
to foster a more intelligent use of energy in areas such as buildings,
transport and electric grids.
Both aspects of the problem raise interesting scientific challenges, and
require a comprehensive effort and inter-disciplinary research at all
levels of abstraction. The goal of this conference is to bring together
people from different research areas, and provide a forum to exchange
ideas, discuss solutions, and share experiences among researchers,
professionals, and application developers both from industry and academia.
Original papers addressing both theoretical and practical aspects of
energy-awareness for Internet-based systems, and the design of ICT
solutions for eco-sustainability are solicited.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Green Internet
- Power-aware Internet applications
- Energy-efficient network architecture and protocols
- Green wireless networking
- Energy-efficient network technologies
- Cross-layer optimization for green networking
- Standards and metrics for green communications
- Energy-efficient management of network resources
- Energy efficiency in data centres
- Energy efficiency, Quality of Service, and reliability
- Algorithms for reduced power, energy and heat
- Data processing in smart energy systems
- ICT for energy efficiency in smart homes and buildings
- ICT for sustainable smart cities
- ICT for sustainable transports and logistics
- ICT for green mobility
- ICT for energy efficiency in industrial environments
- ICT for smart grids
- Security and privacy in ICT for energy systems
- Sustainability achievements due to ICT-based optimization
- Energy consumption measurements, models, and monitoring tools
- Measurement and evaluation of the Internet sustainability
- Test-bed and prototype implementations
