Call for participation in the 3rd Symposium on Green networking and computing

Third Symposium on Green networking and computing co-chaired by Josip Lorincz, Ph. D. will be held in the frame of the 20th International Conference on Software, Telecommunications and Computer Networks (SoftCOM 2012). Symposium is organised in cooperation with Technical Subcommittee on Green Communications and Computing (TSCGCC) of the IEEE ComSoc and supported by the European Commission FP7 TREND (Towards Real Energy-efficient Network Design) project.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:

• Power consumption models of networking infrastructure
• Power measurements and data from empirical studies of communication networks
• Techniques for reducing power consumption in data centers
• Hardware and architectural support for reducing power consumption
• Energy efficient network management
• Green network design
• Applications of green networking technologies and principles
• Cross-layer optimizations for reducing energy consumption
• Optimization of energy consumption in optical networks
• Energy-efficient protocols and protocol extensions
• Energy-efficient transmission technologies
• Energy-efficient peer-to-peer networking and overlays
• Energy-efficient cloud computing
• Green wireless access networks
• Green wired access network
• Green future Internet
• Energy cost models for network operators
• Energy-efficient sensor networks

• Renewable energy sources for wired and wireless access network.

Paper submission deadline: June 30, 2012.

Authors of all accepted Symposium papers will be invited to submit extended version of their manuscripts for possible publication in the Special issue on Green networking and computing of the International Journal of Business Data Communications and Networking-IJBDCN (indexed in Scopus).
