Introduction
Sustainable Computing and Communications refers to principles that embrace
a range of policies, procedures, programs, and attitudes that run the
length and breadth of any use of information and communication
technologies. It is a holistic approach that stretches from power to waste
to purchasing to education and is a life-cycle management approach to the
deployment of IT across an organization. It includes designing,
manufacturing, using, and disposing of information and communication
systems with minimal or no impact on the environment.
SustainCom (Sustainable Computing and Communications) was created to
provide a prime international forum for researchers, industry practitioners
and domain experts to exchange the latest fundamental advances in the state
of the art and practice of Sustainable Computing andCommunications as well
