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 infrastructures,
home networks, and terminal equipment, but excluding energy
efficiency for IT (specifically data centers), sensor networks,
mobile ad-hoc networks, and mesh networks.
Areas of interest include but are not limited to
- Energy-efficient protocols and protocol extensions
- Energy-efficient transmission technologies
- Cross-layer optimizations
- Energy-efficient technology for network equipment
- Energy-efficient switch and base station architectures
- Low-power sleep mode
- Exploitation of passive network elements
- Energy-efficient communications management
- Architectures and frameworks
- Hierarchical and distributed techniques
- Remote power management for terminals
- Context-based power management
- Measurement and profiling of energy consumption
- Instrumentation for energy consumption measurement
- Operator experiences
- Energy-efficiency in specific networks
- Mobile and wireless/wired access networks
- Broadband access networks
- Management of home and office networks
Paper Submission Guidelines
We invite you to submit your papers to the Second International
Workshop on Green Communications. 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 should be no more than five (5) pages,
a maximum of one (1) additional page will be allowed but will incur
additional page charges for publication of the camera-ready version.
Papers with more than six (6) pages will not be reviewed. Submissions
must use double column format, including tables, figures, and
references, with a font no smaller than 10 points. Please use the
Transactions
stylesheet template provided by IEEE to assure that your
submission meets our guidelines. Papers must be submitted in PDF
format through the EDAS conference system by selecting the "GC'09"
"Submit" link at the EDAS
paper submission website and then selecting
the workshop submission link for "2nd GreenComm09". Accepted papers
will appear in the GLOBECOM workshop proceedings and will be included
in IEEE Xplore. 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 10 July 2009 (extended).
