[ecoop-info] CfP: Energy Aware Software-Engineering and Development

[Christian Bunse]

Energy Aware Software-Engineering and Development (EASED at GI 2013)

 One of the current trends in information technologies are mobile and
embedded devices. Devices get smaller, more powerful, more flexible to
use/program, and ubiquitous. However, one of the major drawbacks of using
such devices are their limited resources, especially their power supply.
Hence, their uptime strongly depends on the effectiveness of energy saving
technologies. And regarding the goals of Green IT also non-battery powered
devices profit from energy-efficient software.

Computer devices are composed of memory, CPU, bus systems, communication
interfaces and other hardware components. Users use software that utilizes
the available hardware to solve certain tasks. However, different
components have different energy consumptions. Standard PCs like laptops
optimize energy consumptions by adapting the behavior of their hardware.
Besides this, one must consider hardware access via software to optimize
energy consumptions. Unfortunately, we do not have mature measurement
approaches that are platform independent and reliable nor do we fully
understand the tradeoffs between energy, performance, cost, and other
metrics. This limits our ability to improve energy-efficiency without
violating performance requirements and physical constraints.

EASED2013 provides a forum in which to present the latest research and to
debate directions, challenges, and novel ideas about building
energy-efficient software systems. In addition, researchers will have the
opportunity to interact with one another, explore cross-cutting ideas, and
develop new perspectives on the problem domain. Topics include but are not
limited to:

   - Software based energy measurement
   - Energy metrics of software
   - Modeling Energy-Aware systems
   - Energy classification strategies
   - Strategies for optimizing energy consumptions
   - Protocols for energy aware data communication
   - Energy aware software engineering approaches

To further stimulate these discussions, authors are invited to submit
papers on the workshop´s topics. Accepted papers will be presented at the
workshop and will be published in GI-Edition "Lecture Notes in Informatics"
(LNI) <http://www.gi.de/service/publikationen/lni/>.
