Special Session on Smart Grids: Emerging Services and Networks
IEEE Consumer Communications and Networking Conference 2011
Jan 9 - 12, 2011 * Las Vegas, NV, USA
The future smart grid will enable cost savings and lower energy use by
means of smart appliances and smart meters which support dynamic load
management and real-time monitoring of energy use and distribution. The
Smart Grid will interface with smart appliances and area networking in the
home. The introduction of two-way communications and control into power
grid enables coordination of home energy use with the real-time economics
of the power grid, while introducing security and privacy concerns.
Deployment of Smart Grids opens important new services for consumers and
means that home networks for appliances and personal electronics may be
integrated and monitored for energy management.
Important progress has been in Smart Grid architecture, and there are many
pilot projects underway around the world. The details of Smart Grid
network and services is still evolving.
The goal of this special session is to provide a forum for engineers,
architects, and researchers to share knowledge and innovation in Smart
Grid evolution focusing on network and service issues touching consumers.
We solicit papers covering various topics of interest that include (but
are not limited to) the following:
* End-to-end networking
* Area network integration with smart grid
* Protocols for control and event delivery
* Gateways and smart meter interconnectivity and routing
* Event distribution and load management
* Novel services
* Cyber security and privacy
* Wide-area situational awarness
* Consumer-to-consumer power re-distribution mechanisms and networking
* Standardization
* Pilot projects and deployments
Authors are invited to submit regular technical papers or position papers.
The position papers should present novel technologies at an early stage of
development or share future vision. All submissions should describe
original, previously unpublished research, not currently under review by
another conference or journal. Manuscripts should not exceed five (5)
pages in double-column IEEE format. Please submit the paper via EDAS.
Submissions
Deadline: Aug 31, 2010 ** EXTENDED **
Submissions for the Special Sessions are subject to the same rules,
guidelines and peer review as all other papers.
