Scope and Topics of Interest

Green communications and computing has been increasingly emphasized in recent years, on the grounds not only of ecological concerns but also of significant economic drivers (cost saving). The current explosive growth in the number of devices connected to the Internet and in transmission capacity calls for "green solutions" to address the challenges in energy efficient and/or resource-efficient and/or environmentally-friendly communications and computing systems.

This track solicits contributions describing current trends and cutting-edge research in communication and computing systems and networks that incorporate "green" constraints in their design and operation. It covers a wide range of green communications topics, including not only green-enabled communications and computing networks, but also communication and computing technologies enabling other green solutions such as smart grids, green buildings and green logistics.

The objective of this track is to facilitate substantial advances in new system architectures, protocols and algorithms, which may allow significant reductions in energy and/or resource consumption. Prospective authors are invited to submit their original work addressing new and emerging issues in communications and networking on the above themes. Submissions are welcome from academia, industry and government organizations.
