Submission deadline extended to september 10, 2011!


CALL FOR PAPERS
----------------------------------------------
2nd International Workshop on Green Computing Middleware (GCM'2011)
In conjunction with ACM/IFIP/USENIX 12th International Middleware
Conference, December 12 - December 16, 2011. Lisbon, Portugal.
----------------------------------------------

Green computing is nowadays a major challenge for most IT organizations 
that involve medium and large scale distributed infrastructures like 
Grids, Clouds and Clusters. The GCM workshop will focus on next 
generation middlewares that will require solutions for all aspects of 
green computing such as energy efficiency, carbon footprint reduction 
and cooling management. These middlewares must take into account the 
impact of green computing on the traditional distributed system issues 
like Dependability, Scalabilitity, Performance and Configuration 
management. The workshop aims to provide a forum to a wide audience from 
both the academia and the industry to discuss recent and innovative 
results in the field. Topics of interest addressed by the GCM workshop 
include, but are not limited to:

     * Green and Clouds applications
     * Green architectures for Grids, Clouds and clusters
     * Design of green computing middlewares
     * Energy efficient large scale systems
     * Green-oriented Autonomic computing
     * QoS and green computing
     * Energy efficiency benchmarking and profiling
     * Green-aware configuration and resource management
     * Component model for green computing
     * Scheduling and control in green computing
     * Virtualization impact for green computing
     * Software engineering methodologies and tools for green computing
     * Reporting and exposing carbon and energy impact
     * Real life experiments

Paper Format:
The workshop on Green Computing Middleware invites authors to submit 
original and unpublished work. Papers must not exceed 6 pages, must 
strictly follow the ACM conference proceedings format 
(http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html), and must be 
submitted in PDF format.
The workshop papers will be published in the ACM digital library.

Important Dates:
Workshop paper submission due date: September 10, 2011
Workshop paper acceptance notification: September 29, 2011
Camera-ready workshop papers due date: October 10, 2011
