FIRST INTERNATIONAL GREEN COMPUTING CONFERENCE  (IGCC '10):

Sustainable Computing and Computing for Sustainability

Chicago, IL, USA, August 15-18, 2010, www.green-conf.org



has been extended to ****April 07, 2010****.



The First International Green Computing Conference, technically cosponsored
by IEEE, addresses key issues and topics related to energy efficiency in
computing and promoting environmentally friendly computer technologies and
systems. The conference aims to provide a forum to a wide audience for
discussing, sharing and investigating the state-of-the-art for all aspects
of green computing, which include energy-efficient use of computers, design
of algorithms and systems for environmentally-friendly computer
technologies, and wide range of related topics. The conference will publish
papers pertaining to hardware and software systems, algorithms, applications
as well as power, energy and temperature related research areas of current
importance to researchers, engineers and practitioners. The conference will
hold forums and workshops on hot topics related to how the carbon footprint
of computing can be reduced and how computers can contribute to the
environment and overall well being of the planet.



Topics of interest are:

======================

* Power-aware software

* Code profiling and transformation for power management
