ICCCN 2014 – Track on Green Networks and Sustainable Computing (GREEN)
Recent years have witnessed increasing efforts towards designing greener networking infrastructure by improving energy efficiency of end-hosts, data centers, and the cloud operations. Indeed, on one side, communication networks and the Internet represent a source of pollution due to the high power demand, while on the other hand communications and networks provide an unprecedented tool to help solve the society's sustainability issues (e.g, enable distributed/remote monitoring or control such as in smart grid). This conference track is seeking novel contributions on hardware/software design, network architectures, protocols and algorithms that will lead to sustainable, reliable, and energy efficient networking infrastructure, as well as novel approaches that will improve the manageability, security, and reliability of ICT as it is applied to solve global sustainability challenges.
