 Call for Papers: ITC SSEEGN 2013

22nd ITC Specialist Seminar on Energy Efficient and Green Networking (SSEEGN)
             http://www.itcspecialistseminar22.com  

                        co-located with

Australasian Telecommunication Networks and Applications Conference (ATNAC)
                      http://www.atnac.org/


         November 20-22, 2013, Christchurch, New Zealand

SCOPE
Once limited to the computing world  specifically, to data centres -
energy efficiency has become an issue in telecommunication networks in
the recent years, mainly owing to two reasons: the increased attention
to environmental aspects, and the growing operational expenditure
(OPEX) of Telcos and Internet Service Providers (ISPs). Great
attention is currently dedicated to energy-efficient green
networking in both wired and wireless scenarios. A number of
techniques have been identified and are continuously being
consolidated and improved to reduce the energy consumption in
networking equipment, while maintaining at the same time a desired
level of Quality of Service (QoS)  and, ultimately, of Quality of
Experience (QoE) in the users perception  in dependence of the
actual carried traffic load. The range of possible actions spans from
the design aspects (re-engineering of both silicon and network
architecture to reduce complexity) to the on-line operation at small
and large time scales (dynamic adaptation of devices energy
consumption-performance trade-off and smart sleeping techniques).
While Green Networking is pacing to become a mature bulk of
technologies, many aspects still need to be investigated to harmonize
its presence in the complex scenario of the Future Internet.

TOPICS
This ITC Specialist Seminar aims at providing a forum for discussion
of timely and relevant aspects concerning wired and wireless green
networks. Contributions are solicited on all advanced research issues
in this respect, and particularly (but not limited to) on the
following topics:
* Energy consumption / performance trade-off
* Control and optimization techniques applied to green networking
* Network virtualization technologies for energy efficiency
* Device- and network-level energy optimization
* Applications of dynamic adaptation techniques (Low Power Idle and
Adaptive Rate)
* Energy-aware routing
* Green extensions to Traffic Engineering protocols and techniques
* End-to-end energy efficiency
* Energy-aware cross-layer and cross-platform techniques
* Modelling and optimization of energy consumption on network-attached hosts
* Networking for green data centres
* Virtual and green base stations in wireless mobile networks
* Caching techniques for green data-intensive applications
* Interaction between green power sources and green networks
* Energy-aware performance models and metrics
* Data- and Control-Plane interaction for the implementation of
energy-efficient control strategies
* Energy efficient Content Delivery networks and Content Centric networks
* Energy awareness for network users
* Green Networking governance
* Disruptive approaches in energy-aware networking
