                       GreenCom 2011 Call for Papers
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
               The 2011 IEEE/ACM International Conference on
             Green Computing and Communications (GreenCom 2011)

            Sponsored by IEEE, IEEE CS, IEEE TCSC, ACM and NSFC
           Chengdu, Sichuan, China, August 4-5, 2011 (Tentative)

              Website:
http://GreenCom2011.comp.polyu.edu.hk<http://greencom2011.comp.polyu.edu.hk/>
               The submission system was open on Feb. 20, 2011.

   Computers, communication systems and other IT infrastructure have been
posing severe environmental problems by consuming significant amounts of
electricity, increasing greenhouse gas emissions, and causing pollution
during their production and disposal. To reduce these environmental
problems and create a sustainable environment, new models, algorithms,
methodologies, tools and systems are needed so we can generate green IT
systems with high energy efficiency, low greenhouse gas omissions, less
harmful materials and easily being reused and recycled. The goal of
GreenCom 2011 is to provide a forum for scientists, engineers, and
researchers to discuss and exchange their new ideas, novel results,
work in progress and experiences on all aspects of green computing and
communications, as well as to identify emerging research topics and
define the future directions.

Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to:

A. Systems, Models and Algorithms
   A1 Green computing models, methodologies and paradigms
   A2 Green design, manufacture, use, disposal, and recycling of computers
      and communication systems

      systems, compilers and programming environments
   B5 Energy-aware hardware/software co-design
   B6 Virtualization and thin client methods
   B7 DPM/DVFS
   B8 Thermal management and applications
   B9 Energy-efficient network infrastructures and protocols

SUBMISSION OF PAPERS

   All papers must be written in English and submitted electronically
through http://GreenCom2011.comp.polyu.edu.hk<http://greencom2011.comp.polyu.edu.hk/>.
Paper submissions should be
10 pages in two-column, single-space, 10pt format that describe original
work not previously published and not concurrently submitted elsewhere.
Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the
paper be accepted, at least one of the authors must attend the conference
to present the work in order that the accepted papers can be put into the
digital library of IEEE CS (indexed by EI Compendex).

Selected bested papers will be recommended for publication in special
issues of several SCI-indexed journals, including Journal of Systems
Architecture: Embedded Software Design (Elsevier).
