Scope and Motivation
There is a growing emphasis on environmental impact and concerns in
communications and computing, with attention being paid to ecological and, even
more so, economic drivers. The predicted explosive growth in the number of
connected devices and Internet bandwidth necessitates "green solutions" such as
smart grids, green logistics, smart buildings, and green telecommunications
hardware. This track seeks to capture the current trends and cutting edge
research in the sustainability and green-ness of system and network performance
that incorporates "green" constraints in communications, computing, and
electricity networks and relevant terminals.
By promoting innovation in this critical area, substantial advances can be
achieved by developing new architectures, protocols, systems, and algorithms,
which, in turn, will allow significant reductions in energy consumption. This
will also require considering both system components and the relevant
management. This track considers not only green communications, computing, and
electricity systems but also using communications and computing to support
environmental sustainability. Although energy efficiency is one of the main
concerns, this track also considers other non-energy green issues, such
improving resource efficiency, electromagnetic pollution mitigation and
pollution reduction approaches.
Prospective authors are invited to submit their original work addressing new
and emerging issues in communications and computing on the above themes. All
submissions should be written in English with a maximum paper length of Five
(5) printed pages (10- point font) including figures without incurring
additional page charges (maximum 1 additional page with over length page charge
if accepted).
