 Panel Title: Collaborative Programs in Green Communications: Successful Cases 
and Key Remaining Research Challenges  

Time: 11:00AM  12:30PM, Wednesday, 12 June 2013
Location: IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC) 2013, Budapest, 
Hungary

Technical Support:
- TSCGCC (IEEE Technical Subcommittee on Green Communications and Computing)
- GreenTouch
- TREND (Towards Real Energy-efficient Network Design)
- Mobile VCE (Virtual Centre of Excellence in Mobile and Personal 
Communications Ltd)
- ECONET (low Energy COnsumption NETworks)


Panel Moderator: Rodney (Rod) S. Tucker, University of Melbourne, Australia

Bio: Rod Tucker is a Laureate Professor at the University of Melbourne and 
Director of the University of Melbournes Centre for Energy-Efficient 
Telecommunications (CEET). He is also Director of the Institute for a 
Broadband-Enabled Society. Rod leads a group of academics and students 
undertaking research on broadband access technologies and energy-efficient in 
telecommunications.

As research activities in the area of energy-efficient communications have 
expanded around the world, a number of groups in universities and industry have 
joined together in collaborative research programs. Examples include the 
GreenTouch Consortium, a global pre-competitive research consortium dedicated 
to improving network energy efficiency; TREND, a Network of Excellence on 
energy-efficient networking; ECONET, an EU-funded green communications program, 
and MVCE, a collaboration of networking researchers across a variety of 
institutions. The purpose of this Panel Session will be to provide a snapshot 
of research activities in these four collaborative programs and to provide an 
overview of the global status of green telecommunications research. The panel 
will review some of the successful cases that have been achieved to date and 
highlight some key remaining research challenges.

Alcatel-Lucent leading a large team of researchers, engineers and scientists 
across multiple departments, research domains conducting research towards the 
design, development and use of sustainable future communications and data 
networks. He also serves as the Chairman of the Technical Committee of 
GreenTouch, a global consortium dedicated to improve energy efficiency in 
networks by a factor 1000x compared to 2010 levels. Thierry founded a start-up 
company focused on wireless communications for emergency response situations 
within Alcatel-Lucent Ventures. In 2010, he was voted "Technologist of the 
Year" at the Total Telecom World Vendor Awards.

- Speaker: John Thompson (MVCE), University of Edinburgh, UK

Bio: John Thompson holds a personal chair in Signal Processing and 
Communications at the School of Engineering in the University of Edinburgh. His 
research interests include signal processing, energy efficient communications 
systems, and multihop wireless communications. He was deputy academic 
coordinator for the recent Mobile Virtual Centre of Excellence Green Radio 
project, which involved collaboration between five UK universities and a dozen 
international companies. He is member-at-large for the Board of Governors of 
the IEEE Communications Society. He was technical programme co-chair for the 
IEEE Globecom Conference in Miami in 2010 and is serving in the same role for 
the IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference Spring in Dresden in 2013.

- Speaker: Marco Ajmone Marsan (TREND), Politecnico di Torino, Italy
