INVITATION:
=======================================================================
Please consider to contribute to and/or forward to the appropriate groups the
following opportunity to submit and publish original scientific results.
=======================================================================
===== 2nd Symposium on Green Networking and Computing/SoftCOM 2011 =======
Symposium on Green Networking and Computing will be held in the frame of
the 19th International Conference on Software, Telecommunications and
Computer Networks (SoftCOM 2011) technically co-sponsored by the IEEE
Communication Society (ComSoc), in attractive ambience of the Croatian
side of Adriatic coast in September 2011.
The topic of Green networking attracts growing attention due to economical
and environmental reasons. The amount of power consumed by ICT which is
rapidly increasing, as well as the energy bill of service providers
contributes to the economical reasons. According to a number of studies,
ICT alone is responsible for a percentage which varies from 2% to 10% of
the world power consumption, due to the ever increasing diffusion of
electronic devices. Communication networks, including the Internet and
wireless networks, represent a non negligible part of the energy
consumption of ICT. In addition, the carbon footprint of ICT devices due
to energy consumption and the activities related to their entire lifecycle
contributes to global warming.
In the very last years, energy saving techniques are being considered for
communication networks with new generation devices and network management
approaches exploiting algorithms and protocols for adapting the network to
the varying traffic load. The Symposium on Green Networking and Computing
aims to serve as a platform for researchers and visionaries from academia,
research labs, and industry from all over the world. Sharing ideas, views,
results, and experiences in the field of green wired and wireless
networking is what Green Networking and Computing Symposium intend to be
about. Anything from theoretical and experimental achievements, to
innovative design and management approaches, prototyping efforts, and case
studies is of interest.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:
* Power consumption models of networking infrastructure
* Power measurements and data from empirical studies of communication
networks
* Techniques for reducing power consumption in data centers
* Hardware and architectural support for reducing power consumption
* Energy efficient network management
* Green network design
* Applications of green networking technologies and principles
* Cross-layer optimizations for reducing energy consumption
* Optimization of energy consumption in optical networks
* Energy-efficient protocols and protocol extensions
* Energy-efficient transmission technologies
* Energy-efficient peer-to-peer networking and overlays
* Energy-efficient cloud computing
* Green wireless access networks
* Green wired access network
* Green future Internet
* Energy cost models for network operators
