Motivation

 

The  increasing  amount  of  energy  consumption  in  today's    IT
solutions

significantly contributes to green house gas emissions. "Green  Computing"
or

"Green IT" emphasizes the need for reducing  the  environmental  impacts  of
IT

solutions by reducing their energy consumption and, consequently,   their
green

house gas emissions. Among others, green computing can be achieved  in
software

and by software. While greening by software aims  at  saving  energy  (or
other

resources) by the help of software, greening in software aims  at  reducing
the

environmental impact caused by the software itself. The GIBSE workshop  aims
to

bring together academic and industrial researchers  to  share  their
experience

in achieving the green-ness in and by software. 

 

Workshop format

 

The workshop participants will be selected based on their experience  and
ideas

related to  this  new  and  emerging  field.   You  are  invited  to  apply
for

attendance by sending a full-paper (5 pages), work-in-progress paper (3
pages), 

tool demonstration paper (3 pages) or a position paper (3 pages) in  PDF.   

The  paper  must  conform  to  the  ACM

SIGPLAN formatting guidelines:
http://www.sigplan.org/authorInformation.htm.

Submissions will be reviewed by at least 3 PC  members.   The  authors  will
be

notified about acceptance before the AOSD 2014 early registration  deadline.
A

primary deliverable of the workshop is a report that clearly  outlines  (1)
the

research issues and challenges in terms of specific  research  problems  in
the

area, and (2) a synopsis of existing solutions  that  target  some
well-defined

aspect of greenness  in  or  by  software.   Potential  attendees  are
strongly

encouraged to submit position papers that clearly identify research  issues
and

challenges, present techniques that address well-defined problems in  the
area,

and are supported by small demos.

 

Goals

 

With this workshop, we intend to raise the  interest  in  the  topic  and
bring

together junior and senior  researchers  working  in  this  field.   It  is
our

intention to receive submissions from researchers new to the field  as  well
as

experienced researchers and practitioners. For the former, we want  to
offer  a

platform for discussing their ideas and receiving feedback on them.   This
will

be supported by question and answer sessions as well as  by  group
discussions.

The planned  workshop  agenda  interleaves  presentations  of  accepted
papers,

lightning talks about green computing by participants without  accepted
papers,

and discussions. To stimulate participants we intend  to  invite  at  least
one

expert in the field for a keynote talk. 

 

Topics of Interest

 

The topics of interest include, but not limited to: 

 

- Green-ness in software engineering:

  - Methods and techniques to elicit and model green-ness requirements

  - Methods and techniques to identify and analyze the trade-offs among the 

    green-ness requirements themselves and other quality attributes

  - Methods and techniques to model and analyze the green-ness attributes of


    software architecture and their trade-offs

  - Dedicated programming infrastructures, component models, compilers, and 

    linguistic constructs to achieve green-ness in the implementations

  - Methods and techniques to represent green-ness requirements in test 

    scenarios

  - Method and techniques to test the green-ness of software

  - Crosscutting nature of green-ness attributes and the aspect-oriented 

    techniques to cope with it

- Green-ness by software engineering:

  - Design of self-energy-adaptive system architectures

  - Estimating and measuring the energy-consumption of system at design and 

    runtime

  - Design and run-time energy models for self-energy-adaptive system

  - Multi-objective optimization of energy and other quality attributes
