Dear colleagues,
Apologies for possible multiple postings. We would like to invite you to submit your work to the 2019 IEEE Sustainability through ICT Summit (StICT), which will be held on 18-20 June in Montréal, QC, Canada. Please see call for papers below for further details. We look forward to your submission, Best regards, StICT 2019 Chairs
Call for Papers for the 2019 IEEE Sustainability through ICT Summit (StICT) ( http://sustainableict.ieee.org/summit/sict-summit-2019 )
In an increasingly connected world, where Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is transforming all spheres of human activity, both opportunities and challenges for sustainability are arising from the widespread use of ICT. ICT can be leveraged for sustainability’s triple bottom line of economic, environmental and social benefits by facilitating green business models and societal functions. However greening ICT through energy efficient operation and resource management as well as the use of renewable energy sources and proper life cycle management is indispensable to unleash the full potential of greening through ICT and more generally of ICT as a driving force of sustainability.
The 2019 IEEE Sustainability through ICT Summit (StICT), in its second edition, will be held on 18-20 June 2019 at the ETS campus in Montréal. Under the theme of “ICT - A Key Driver for Sustainability,” the Summit promotes a holistic approach on prospects for technologies, standards and policies for ICT-enabled sustainable development that also takes into consideration the sustainability of ICT resources. The summit is sponsored by the IEEE Sustainable ICT Initiative.
Professionals from different disciplines are invited to contribute to the open dialogue over the 3-day summit. The summit will provide an inter-discipline collaboration platform for ICT practitioners; users; technology providers; the standardization community; policy makers; and the research community to exchange views and share expertise through the “Sustainability through ICT” keynote speeches and discussion panel session on Day 1 and the World Cafe event on Day 2. On Day 3, the summit will host the International Workshop on Green ICT and Smart Networking (GISN 2019) where researchers from both industry and academia will come together to promote discussions on smart and green solutions for stimulating, innovating, designing, provisioning, and optimizing the networked society.
IEEE Sustainable ICT initiative White Paper “A Smart and Sustainable World through ICT” represents output from the first Summit and sets the stage for the World Café Event (Day 2) of this Summit. The white paper will be available shortly.
The summit invites submissions on different aspects of networking and computing with a strong focus on sustainability of ICT and sustainability through ICT.
Papers will be dispatched for either Day 1 (Sustainability through ICT) or Day 3 GISN Workshop (Greening ICT). The World Café on Day 2 will be a fully interactive session between all participants to address challenges and opportunities to achieve sustainability through ICT.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to: • Green data center architectures • Energy efficient resource provisioning in data centers • Green cloud and fog computing • Green 5G and Beyond 5G systems • Sustainable smart networking technologies • Sustainable ICT equipment design • QoE/QoS trade-offs in sustainable ICT • Modelling of sustainable ICT systems • The use of Renewable energy in ICT • Community resilience microgrids • Life-cycle analysis for smart ICT • E-waste • Circular economy and large scale sensing systems • Standardization of Green ICT • ICT for sustainable industrial applications • ICT for sustainable buildings • Sustainability applications for smart cities • Sustainable smart transportation • Sobriety in software design • Communication technologies for energy harvesting • Machine learning for sustainable systems • Business models and public policy (regulatory) options for sustainability through ICT
