Green Networks a special issue of the Journal of Supercomputing, Springer

The past decade has witnessed tremendous growth in networking protocols, technologies, and provisioning. Networks now include media such as wired, wireless, ad hoc, WiFi, WiMax, and satellite. In essence, the entire planet is engulfed in information overflow because of networked computing devices, such as supercomputer centers, data repositories, and data centers. The aforementioned advancements are plausible and must be appreciated. However, researchers have not actively explored novel computer network architectures and communication protocols that reduce carbon footprint. Techniques and methodologies, such as the co-scheduling of computational, storage, and network resources, dynamic circuit management, virtualization, migration, remote I/O utilization, redundancy, and information mitigation promise interesting and viable solutions that can enable green networking.

The special issue will primarily focus on theoretical and practical novel solutions that advance the research in green networking. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: • Future green network architectures and communication protocols • Energy-efficient access networks • Overlay networks • Peer-to-peer networking • Content-based energy-efficient networking • Network virtualization • Traffic engineering for maintaining an energy-efficient network • Multi-layer and multi-domain green networks • Green congestion control protocols • Network planning and optimization for green networking • Energy-efficient transmission technologies • Energy management in communication networks • Energy-efficient mobile and wireless access networks • Cross-layer optimization techniques for efficient energy consumption • Energy-efficient switch and base station architectures • Network survivability and network resilience strategies • Provisioning, monitoring, and management of networks • Traffic measurement and analysis • Green architectures for next generation routers • Appliance energy management in home and office networks • Instrumentation, tools and profiling techniques for energy consumption
