Call For Papers
GreenCom’12, the second IEEE Online Conference on Green Communications follows the success of GreenCom’11 in exploring a new way of conducting scientific colloquia in an energy-efficient and environmentally friendly way. The conference will not only discuss latest research results in saving energy with “green” communications technology, but also continue IEEE ComSoc's leadership in “green” conferences with very low CO2 emissions that are conducted on a single track entirely online without requiring participants to travel.
GreenCom addresses the growing need to provide a common forum for academic and industrial researchers covering various aspects of green communications. The online style of the conference makes it easy to participate affordably for everyone. Still, GreenCom is a full-fledged IEEE ComSoc conference adhering to the high standards of IEEE ComSoc’s conferences. All presented papers will be published through IEEE Xplore and presentations will be made available at IEEE ComSoc Webcasts. Streaming of conference sessions will be scheduled at different day times in order to adequately serve all continents.
GreenCom covers a wide range of green communications including energy efficiency of communications as well as communications technologies for other green solutions such as smart grids, green buildings, and green logistics.
The conference solicits original, unpublished research papers on the subsequently listed topics of interest. All articles will be peer-reviewed by at least three independent reviewers. Both academic and industry contributions that report substantial results in green communications with a significant potential for energy savings are welcome. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
