Preliminary Call for Papers
--------------------------------------
3rd International Conference on ICT as Key Technology against Global
Warming - ICT-GLOW 2013
Energy Efficient ICT and Energy Efficiency through ICT
Prague, Czech Republic
August 26 - 30, 2013
-----------------------------------------------------
In 2011, a new record was set with the emission of 31.6 billion metric
tons of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. This is a further increase of
3.6% over the previous record in 2010. Preventing a further temperature
rise is the biggest challenge of our time. The ICT sector is a relevant
contributor to green house gas emissions and global warming due to its
tremendous presence in our everyday life but also a key technology for
the fight against global warming in all other sectors. ICT-Glow 2013
addresses the following issues:
* Energy efficient ICT (hardware, software, processes, platforms, etc.)
* Energy efficiency through ICT for other sectors (transportation,
buildings, production, etc.)
* Energy aware and energy efficient agents (humans, organizations, etc.)
* Adaptation to climate change and resilience
* Environmental informatics
The Third International Conference on ICT as a Key Technology against
Global Warming (ICT-?GLOW13) aims at providing an interdisciplinary
scientific forum for in-depth discussions on the reduction of the carbon
footprint in the different sectors including ICT systems itself.
Emphasis within the ICT-sector is laid on holistic and far-reaching
approaches for green and eco-?friendly solutions. The conference aims to
bring together researchers and practitioners from multiple disciplines
ranging from green maturity models in organizations to system level
design and optimization.
