*******************************************************************************************

Utilization of mobile and embedded devices, and thus their induced energy
consumption, is constantly increasing. Reducing the energy consumption of
such devices will not only improve the carbon footprint of contemporary
mobile IT usage, but will also extend the device lifetime, improve user
acceptance and reduce operational costs.  

Next to to serious and ongoing efforts in hardware design and on operating system level,  
software engineering techniques will also contribute to optimize energy consumption by
improving software design and software quality. The EASED@BIUS workshop, which
follows up the  Workshop on Developing Energy Aware Software Systems (EEbS 2012)
(
http://www.uni-weimar.de/cms/medien/mobile-media/eebs-2012.html), held at
the annual GI Conference in September 2012, provides a broad forum for researchers
and practitioners to discuss ongoing work, latest results and common topics of
interest regarding the improvement of software induced energy consumption.

Intensive discussions at the first workshop identified a major challenge in optimizing
energy efficiency, which is to precisely measure energy consumption of software,
regarding user behavior. Thus, the follow workshop EASED@BUIS will focus
on the following topics:

 - approaches and techniques to estimate or measure the energy consumption
    of software components,
   
 - approaches to define standardized application scenarios on mobile
    devices to provide repeatable measurement of energy consumption in concrete
    application settings,
         
 - approaches to model the energy consumption of software components, and
 
 - experiences on measuring and improving the energy consumption of software
     components.

Well elaborated and standardized measurement means will provide an important
foundation to detecting sources of wasting energy caused by software systems
and will enable validation means to  verify energy savings by software improvements.

EASED@BUIS will be organized as a one day discussion-intensive workshop to provoke
intensive collaborations among the participants. It is intended to initiate collaborative
works on standardizing (static and dynamic) measuring techniques for energy
consumption.

To further stimulate these discussions, authors are invited to submit position papers  
on the workshop´s topics. Accepted papers will be presented at the workshop and will
be published in Softwaretechnik-Trends (
http://pi.informatik.uni-siegen.de/stt/).
