Second International Conference on Smart Grids and Green IT systems (SMARTGREENS), Aachen, Germany

[Date: 2012-07-30]

The Second International Conference on Smart Grids and Green IT systems (SMARTGREENS) will take place from 9 to 10 May 2013 in Aachen, Germany.

Green Computing is nowadays one of the major challenges for most IT organizations that involve medium and large scale distributed infrastructures like grids, clouds and clusters. The conference will focus on solutions for all aspects of green computing such as energy efficiency, carbon footprint reduction and cooling management.

The event will bring together researchers, designers, developers and practitioners who will discuss tradeoff between energy efficiency and performance as a key challenge that must be addressed in both distributed and traditional performance-oriented infrastructures. Strong focus will be placed on the use of smart devices (including smart home and new vehicular energy approaches) which require further research on distributed communications, energy storage and integrations of various sources of energy.
