The many instantiations of computing collectively may consume as much as 10% of the world’s electricity today and may be growing to more than 20% by the decade’s end. Such a prolific use of electricity also impacts the globe’s carbon footprint. How can we manage and reduce this?
This special issue will focus on presenting new and incremental research on how to manage and reduce the electricity consumption and/or the carbon footprints of computing without compromising technological needs of the current and future generations. We are soliciting submissions on topics that contribute to our better understanding of the progress being made to describe the challenges or to improve the outcomes of green and sustainable computing. Papers on a range of topics are invited, including, but not limited to:
Submission deadline: October 15, 2022
Initial notifications: December 1, 2022
Revised papers due: March 1, 2023
Publication: June 2023
