Third International Green Computing Conference (IGCC'12):

Motto: Sustainable Computing and Computing for Sustainability

June 5-8, 2012 in San Jose, California, USA

Workshops and Tutorials

Main Conference:    Submissions for workshops are open

IGCC’12 will provide a forum for presenting and discussing innovative research on a broad range of topics in the fields of sustainable and energy-efficient computing, and computing for a more sustainable planet. The conference will hold a technical program, panels, workshops, and tutorials on these topics. IGCC’12 will be technically co-sponsored by the IEEE. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Topics: Sustainable Computing	Topics: Computing for Sustainability
Power-aware algorithms and protocols Power-aware software and hardware Low-power electronics and systems Application-specific ASICs and FPGAs Sensing and monitoring Characterization, metrics, and modeling Reliability, thermal behavior and control Power-efficient delivery and cooling Life-cycle analysis of IT equipment	Renewable energy models and prediction Matching energy supply and demand Smart grid and microgrids Smart transportation and manufacturing Smart buildings and urban development Energy harvesting, storage, and recycling Climate and ecosystem monitoring Using IT to reduce carbon emissions Carbon metering and user feedback

IGCC’12 welcomes submissions that have not been published and that are not under review by another conference or journal. All submissions will be evaluated on their originality, technical soundness, significance, presentation, and interest to the conference attendees. Submissions must not exceed 10 letter-size pages using the IEEE format for conference proceedings. Papers must be received by the submission deadline to be considered for presentation.

Best paper award and journal publication:

The Technical Committee will select the best paper as well as several papers to be extended and considered by the Journal on Sustainable Computing.
