GreenCom 2017 - The 13th IEEE International Conference on Green Computing and Communications

Computer networks, communication systems, and other IT infrastructures have caused severe environmental problems by consuming significant amounts of power, increasing greenhouse gas emissions, and leading to pollution during the production and disposal. To address such problems and create a sustainable environment, new energy models, algorithms, methodologies, platforms, tools and systems are required to support next-generation computing and communication infrastructure. Thus, green computing and communications solutions should be designed with more renewable energy, higher energy efficiency, lower greenhouse gas emission, and less harmful materials.
The 2017 IEEE International Conference on Green Computing and Communications (GreenCom-2017) will be an exciting international forum for scientists, engineers, and researchers to exchange their novel work regarding advancements in the state-of-art of green computing and communications, as well as to identify the emerging research topics and open issues for further researches.
