The First IEEE International Workshop on Green Mobile Computing Networks,
held in conjunction with the IEEE ICCC'2013 conference.  

12-14 August 2013
Xi'an, China

---------------------------------------------


As concerns about climate change, rising fossil fuel prices and energy
security increase, companies and governments around the world are
committing great efforts to develop new technologies for the green
strategies addressing climate change globally and facilitating low
greenhouse gas (GHG) development. Currently, the GHG emissions produced
from the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) industry alone are
equivalent to the GHG emissions of the entire aviation
industry. Furthermore, with the increasing demand for higher data rates,
the energy consumption for the ICT industry is increasing by 16-20% per
year. Moreover, the energy costs for mobile operators can be as high as
half of their annual operating budgets. In addition, the role of green
communications and networking technologies includes not only the emission
reduction and energy savings in communication products and services, but
also enabling low GHG emissions in other industries, such as electric
power smart grid.

On the other hand, there is phenomenal burst of research in mobile cloud
computing, which extends cloud computing functions, services and results to
the world of future mobile applications. Mobile applications demand greater
resources and improved interactivity for better user experience. Resources
in cloud computing platforms such as Google AppEngine and Microsoft Azure
are a natural fit to remedy the lack of local resources in mobile devices.
The availability of cloud computing resources on a pay-as-you-go basis, the
advances in virtualization and the emergence of LTE-A and WiMAX, IEEE
802.11n and 60 GHz create a new set of rich research problems.

Topics: The workshop invites submissions on the following topics (but not
limited to):

Trends and challenges of achieving low energy consumption and low GHG
emission
Energy efficiency and GHG emission metrics and measurements in mobile
computing networks
Communication networks for smart grids
Energy efficient hardware, devices and designs
Coordinated power and GHG emission control for network-wide optimization
QoS provisioning and resource management in green mobile computing networks
MAC, routing and transport protocols for green mobile computing networks
Cross-layer optimization of green mobile computing networks
End-to-end modeling and performance of green mobile computing networks
Pricing and billing for green mobile computing devices and services
Green 3G/4G/5G, wireless wide area infrastructures, short range networks,
mesh topologies
Security of green mobile computing networks
Signal processing for green mobile computing networks
Information theory for green mobile computing networks
Cooperative theory, game theory and causal reasoning for green mobile
computing networks
Interdisciplinary research for green mobile computing networks
Standards, policy and regulation for green c mobile computing networks
Experimental test-beds and results


[Paper Submission]

The authors are encouraged to submit full papers describing original,
previously unpublished, complete research, not currently under review by
another conference or journal, addressing state-of-the-art research and
development. All submissions should be written in English with a maximum
paper length of five (5) printed pages (10-point font) including figures.

Electronic Submission: http://www.edas.info/N14587

The proceedings of the workshops program will be published as the ICCC2013
main conference, and will be also included by IEEE Digital Library and
indexed by EI.

The Workshop on "GreenMobile Computing Networks" provides a forum for
discussions of all these most recent developments and brings together
industry and academia, engineers and researchers.
