Computer networks, communication systems, and other IT infrastructures have a growing environmental footprint due to the significant amounts of energy consumption and greenhouse gas emission. 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 infrastructures. Thus, green computing and communications solutions should be designed to better integrate renewable energy sources, to improve energy efficiency, and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and harmful materials.<br>The 2018 IEEE International Conference on Green Computing and Communications (GreenCom–2018) will be an exciting international forum for scientists, engineers, and researchers to exchange their novel research 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.<br>Track I: Green Computing and Communication Technologies<br>– Green infrastructure sustainable design and technologies<br>– Energy– and power–constrained devices and gateways<br>– Ultra–low power systems architectures<br>– Low–power, distributed data processing on sensors<br>– Energy–efficient M2M wired and wireless communications and<br>networking<br>– Optimization and/or analysis in green computing and communications (including core network optimization)<br>– Green big data, cloud, and data center architecture<br>– Green technologies for 5G (SDN, IoT, and crowdsourcing, etc.)<br>– Energy harvesting communications and networks<br>– Energy efficient networking, communications and protocols<br>– Machine learning/deep learning approaches for green communications and computing<br>– Measurement and modeling of energy consumption<br>– Security in green communications and computing<br>– Artificial intelligence approaches for green networking<br>– Experimental test–beds, standardization and field trials<br>Track II: Smart Energy and Smart Grid<br>– Smart metering infrastructure and technologies<br>– Large–scale monitoring, control and demand response<br>– Advanced data fusion, mining and modeling in smart grid<br>– Management and control of distributed energy generation, storage and consumption<br>– Advanced smart grid applications: grid–to–vehicle and vehicle–to–grid, Micro–grid<br>– Electrical vehicle charging/discharging strategies<br>– Renewable energy generation and new energy sources<br>– Standardization and benchmark<br>Track III: Green Society Applications<br>– Smart sensing systems<br>– Smart city<br>– Green vehicle, green home, green buildings and green anything<br>– Green industrial automation and control<br>– Intelligent Transport Systems and control<br>– Energy efficiency in aerial/UAV communication networks<br>– Green social networks<br>– Applications of blockchain in energy management and trading<br>
