Call For Papers - CFP

Miami, Florida, USA, 10 December 2010

http://www.green-communications.net/globecom10/

To be held in conjunction with the

IEEE Global Communications Conference (IEEE GLOBECOM 2010)

Miami, Florida, USA, 6 - 10 December 2010

*** Extended Paper Submission Deadline: 11 July 2010 ***

Objectives:

The steadily rising energy cost and the need to reduce the global

CO2 emission to protect our environment are today?s economical and

ecological drivers for the emerging consideration of energy

consumption in all fields of communications. Triggered by network

operators experiencing energy cost as a significant new factor of

their calculation, researchers have started to investigate approaches

for reducing power consumption and manufacturers have started

offering energy-efficient network components. Also standards bodies,

such as the IEEE, are already developing standards for energy-

efficient protocols. While research and development in these areas

has recently gained momentum, the space of potential solutions is

still far from being explored.

The Third International Workshop on Green Communications will be held

in conjunction with the IEEE Global Communications Conference (IEEE

GLOBECOM 2010) and will bring together academic and industrial

researchers for discussing energy-efficient communications. After

two previous successful workshops on green communications at ICC'09

and GLOBECOM'09, it will continue to serve as a forum for addressing

research challenges between the already established conferences and

workshops covering energy efficiency for IT on one side and for

wireless sensor networks on the other side.

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 Third 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'10 -

Workshop" "Submit" link at the EDAS paper submission website and then

selecting "IEEE Globecom 2010 Workshop on Green Communications"

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 02 July 2010.

For any question or problem related to the paper submission process,

please contact quitteknw.neclab.eu with e-mail Subject: GreenComm10
