First International Workshop on Green Communications
(GreenComm¹09)
Dresden, Germany, 18 June 2009
In conjunction with the IEEE International Conference on
Communications (IEEE ICC 2009), Dresden, Germany, 14-18 June 2009
*********************************************************************
Objectives:
The steadily rising energy cost and the need to reduce the global
CO2 emission to protect our environment are today's economical and
ecological drivers for the emerging consideration of energy
consumption in all fields of communications. Triggered by network
operators experiencing energy cost as a significant new factor of
their calculation, researchers have started to investigate approaches
for reducing power consumption and manufacturers have started
offering energy-efficient network components. Also standards bodies,
such as the IEEE, are already processing standards for energy-
efficient protocols. However, research and development in these areas
is still at an early stage and the space of potential solutions is
far from being explored.
The First International Workshop on Green Communications (GreenComm
'09) will bring together academic and industrial researchers for
discussing energy-efficient communications. It will close the gap
between the already established conferences and workshops covering
energy-efficiency for IT on one side and for wireless sensor networks
on the other side.
Topics of Interest:
We solicit contributions that report recent results, share
experiences, or address research challenges in energy-efficient
network protocols and devices and in energy management. Particularly,
we want to identify and address issues with a very high potential for
significant energy saving including access network infrastructure,
home networks, and terminals.
Areas of interest include but are not limited to
* Energy-efficient protocols and protocol extensions
* Energy-efficient transmission technologies
* Cross-layer optimizations
* Energy-efficient network device technology
* Energy-efficient switch and base station architectures
* Zero-power sleep mode
* Exploitation of passive network elements
* Energy management in communication networks
* Architectures and frameworks
* Hierarchical and distributed techniques
* Remote power management for terminals
* Harvesting distributed energy generation
* Measurement and profiling of energy consumption
* Instrumentation for energy consumption measurement
* Operator experiences
* Energy-efficiency in specific networks
* Mobile and wireless access networks
* Broadband access networks
* Appliances management in home and office networks
Paper Submission Guidelines:
We invite you to submit your papers to GreenComm'09. Submitted papers
must represent original material that is not currently under review
elsewhere, and has not been previously published. All papers will be
properly peer-reviewed by members of the technical program committee
and other experts active in the field to ensure high quality and
relevance to the workshop.
Paper length must be no more than 5 pages, double column, including
tables, figures, and references. Your submission must not use fonts
smaller than 10 points. Please use the Transactions stylesheet
template (http://www.ieee.org/portal/pages/pubs/transactions/
stylesheets.html) provided by IEEE to assure that your submission is
in line with our guidelines. Papers must be submitted in PDF format
through the EDAS conference system by selecting "ICC'09" at the EDAS
paper submission website (http://www.edas.info/) and then selecting
the workshop submission link for "GreenComm09". Accepted papers will
appear in the ICC workshop proceedings and will be included in IEEE
explore. At least one of the authors of accepted papers must attend
the workshop to present its paper. Papers are to be submitted no
later than 01 November 2008.
For any question or problem related to GreenComm'09 paper submission,
please contact quittek@nw.neclab.eu with e-mail Subject: GreenComm'09
