WORKSHOP SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES

Energy-efficiency is one of the most important issues of the modern-day
and future computing and communication systems. Due to
the importance of power and energy consumption in these systems
various techniques have been investigated and developed.
However, these solutions should be able to provide good performance
and to cope under an increased workload demand.
Moreover, the solutions should be able to preserve or even increase
its efficiency when the number of resources increases.
The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers
and practitioners interested in addressing challenging issues related to
scalable solutions for power and energy consumption optimization
in large-scale parallel and distributed computing, ambient
computing, information technology and communication systems.
The workshop covers all energy-efficient related topics of scalable
solutions. Both theoretical papers and papers describing practical
experiences are welcome.

???????WORKSHOP TOPICS

The WORKSHOP seeks original contributions in all relevant areas,
including but not limited to the following topics:

? ?????Scalability of energy-efficient solutions on large-scale parallel
??????and distributed systems, information technologies and communication
? ?????Optimization of energy-efficient protocols/algorithms
? ?????Green design scalability in the CLOUDS (cloud computing and
distributed systems)
??????and Green High Density Computing
? ?????Virtualization techniques for energy-efficiency in large scale
distributed systems
? ?????Energy-efficient scalable resource allocation and load balancing
? ?????Reduced power/energy/heat algorithms & applications
? ?????Energy-efficient portable solutions
? ?????Algorithm designs for scalable solutions
? ?????Energy-efficient scalable scheduling
? ?????Energy-efficient cross-layer protocols
? ?????Energy-efficient MAC protocols
? ?????Energy-efficient routing protocols
? ?????Voltage and frequency scaled networks ? Energy-efficient

??SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Prospective authors are invited to submit papers electronically.
Submitted manuscript should be a maximum of 8 pages in length,
following the IEEE Computer Society Proceedings Manuscript Style,
using two-column, single-space format, with 10-point font size,
including figures and references. The PC chairs will automatically
reject oversized papers. Submitted papers may not have appeared
in, or simultaneously be under consideration for, another conference
or workshop, or for a journal.

Authors should submit the
manuscript in PDF format via email to the Workshop organizers
at
johnatan.pecero-AT-uni.lu ,
cesar.diaz-AT-uni.lu .

Only PDF files will be accepted. All papers will be reviewed (with a minimum of three reviews per paper) by the workshop
International Program Committee members following similar criteria used in SCALCOM and CIT.
Papers will be judged based on correctness, originality, significance, technical strength, quality of
presentation, and interest and relevance to the workshop scope.

Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their papers will be registered and presented at the workshop.
All accepted papers will be published by the IEEE in the proceedings of CIT 2011 and ScalCom
2011.

Extended versions of selected papers will be considered for publication in a special edition of the "Journal of Cluster Computing" (Springer, impact factor 0.695).
