GCC 2017 - International Workshop on Application of green techniques to emerging communication and computing paradigms (GCC)

The International Workshop on Application of green techniques to emerging communication and computing paradigms (GCC)
Paris, France on Sunday 21 May 2017.
In conjunction with IEEE ICC 2017
http://icc2017.ieee-icc.org/workshop/international...
Technically Sponsored by TCGCC, the IEEE Technical Committee on Green Communications & Computing.
Scope
=====
With new and emerging communication paradigms, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), 5G, Small Cell Communications, Tactile Communications, Nano Communications, Cognitive Networking, Visual Light Communications (VLC), Machine-to-Machine Communications (M2M), Device-to-Device (D2D), and Vehicular Networks, we have the opportunity to make them green from the very start.
With the help of green techniques, such as standby/idle power management, energy harvesting, energy storage, energy transfer, virtualization, adaptive/flexible networks, we can design future emerging networking and communication systems/paradigms to be green from start and to ensure a sustained development to even greener solutions in the far future.
