[Apologies for multiple copies of this CFP] *-------** --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Short Papers in Poster Sessions - IEEE International Conference on Green Computing and Communications 2013 (GreenCom 2013) ----------------------** ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *August 20-23, 2013, Beijing, China http://www.china-iot.net/GreenCom2013.htm
Paper submission deadline: April 17, 2013, 23:59:00 EDT (US Eastern Time) EDAS submission link: http://www.edas.info/newPaper.php?c=14643 GreenCom 2013 is sponsored by IEEE, IEEE Computer Society, and IEEE Technical Committee on Scalable Computing. GreenCom 2013 is also supported by IEEE Technical Subcommittee on Green Communications and Computing (TSCGCC). --------------------------- Scope and Motivation --------------------------- Computer networks, communication systems, and other IT infrastructures consume significant amounts of energy and natural resources. This contributes to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions and causes harmful pollution from the production and disposal of IT equipment. To reduce the environmental impact of IT infrastructures and enable a future sustainable society, new models, algorithms, methodologies, platforms, tools, and systems are urgently needed. Future IT infrastructures need to be designed with greater energy and resource use efficiency. Advances are needed in green computing, green communications, smart power grids, and many other related areas. Applications, as well as corresponding adoption, business model, economical, and social issues have also become keys to use green technologies. The 2013 IEEE International Conference on Green Computing and Communications (GreenCom 2013) will be an exciting international forum for scientists, engineers, and researchers to exchange ideas about state-of-the-art green computing and communications, and to identify emerging research areas for future work. GreenCom 2013 builds on the previously successful GreenCom conferences held as GreenCom 2012 (Besançon, France, November 2012), GreenCom 2011 (Chengdu, China, April 2011), GreenCom 2010 (Hangzhou, China, December 2010). Poster Sessions may provide authors some opportunities of direct discussions with colleagues during poster sessions, which may not be that convenient in formal oral presentation sessions. GreenCom 2013 allows posters to be accompanied by demos. ------------------------------ Submission Instructions ------------------------------ Authors are invited to submit original short papers that must not have been submitted to, or have been published in, any other workshop, conference, or journal. All accepted short papers would be presented as posters in the conference. All short papers will be peer-reviewed by members of the Program Committee and be evaluated for originality, significance of the contribution, technical correctness, and presentation. Short Papers (the length of each short paper could be from 2 pages to 3 pages without overlength charges) are solicited. Prepare your paper in IEEE CS format. Paper formatting instructions and templates (“8.5 x 11” two-column format) can be found at: http://www.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting Posters may be accompanied by demos (subject to limited spaces). It is expected that there is a presenter presenting in the Poster (Short Paper) Sessions for a poster made according to an accepted short paper at the meeting. In the event that the presenter is unable to present the poster, the presenter has to quickly notify the program chairs and Poster (Short Paper) Sessions chairs in order to make substitute arrangements. The short paper may be excluded from IEEE Xplore, the CSDL(IEEE Computer Society Digital Library), and EI-index if the presenter cannot present the posterat the conference. ------------------------------ -------------------------------------- Technical Sub-Tracks in Poster (Short Paper) Sessions -------------------------------------------------------------------- GreenCom 2013 has 7 Technical Sub-Tracks managed by Sub-Track Co-Chairs in Poster (Short Paper) Sessions. Short papers are to be submitted to the Technical Sub-Tracks as described below. GreenCom 2013 is using EDAS as its conference management system. ************************* Poster (Short Paper) Sessions - Sub-Track on Economics, Social Networks, Applications, and Emerging Interdisciplinary (PS- ESAEI) Sub-Track Chairs: Louis-Francois Pau, Copenhagen Business School, Rotterdam School of Management and University of Pretoria (Email: [email protected]) Loutfi Nuaymi, Telecom Bretagne, France (Email: [email protected]) EDAS Paper submission link: http://www.edas.info/newPaper.php?c=14643&track=31891 Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: -
