* Overview:
e-Energy 2011 is the second international conference on energy-efficient
computing and networking. Due to the increasing significance of power
consumption in computing and networking, the goal of e-Energy is to bring
together researchers, developers, practitioners working in this area to
discuss recent and innovative results, and identify future directions and
challenges. The continuing spread of Information and Communication
Technology (ICT) has contributed much to the reduction of energy
consumption in many areas of everyday life. Nevertheless ICT infrastructure
continues to expand in capacity and reach, and needs to be more energy-
efficient itself. e-Energy addresses all cyber infrastructure such as 
the varied
fields of servers and communication infrastructures, services in data 
centers,
end-systems in home and office environments, broadband access networks,
sensor networks, cloud computing, smart grids and future networks such as
the Internet of Things.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- Instrumentation and measurement of energy-efficient computing and
  networking
- Energy and performance profiling, accounting of energy consumption
- Metrics, benchmarks, interfaces, tools
- Monitoring and management concepts
- Energy, performance, quality of service and other resource tradeoffs
- Energy-efficient networking and protocols
- Energy-efficient peer-to-peer networking and overlays
- Future energy-efficient architectures
- Energy-efficient application design
- Load, heat, and resource modeling
- Load, heat, and resource management
- Reliability and power management
- Energy-efficient grid and data-center technology
- Energy-efficient cloud computing
- Energy-efficiency and virtualization
- Energy-efficiency, resource sharing, and security
- SmartGrids: new computing and networking contributions
- Sensing techniques and sensor networks for energy awareness
- Energy-efficient network components (switches, routers, transceivers,
  amplifiers, etc.)
- Design methodologies and tools for energy-efficient services
- Security challenges in energy-efficient computing and networking

* Important Dates:
Full papers due: January 14, 2011
Notification of acceptance: March 21, 2011
Final versions due: April 22, 2011

* Publication:
e-Energy invites submission of two categories of paper: full papers and
discussion papers. Full papers should be no longer than 10 pages and
discussion papers should be no longer than 4 pages. All papers must
present original theoretical and/or experimental research that has not been
previously published, accepted for publication, or is not currently under
review by another conference or journal. Submissions must be in PDF-
format using the double-column ACM format given at
http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates.

Further submission information can be accessed via 
http://www.e-energy-conf.org/.
Proceedings will be published by ACM and appear in the ACM library
and IEEE Xplore (subject to agreement by ACM and the IEEE).

Full papers should include a detailed description of research either in 
progress
or completed. A discussion paper describes innovative and novel ideas 
that have
not yet been fully explored, but have the potential to influence the 
research community.
A discussion paper could, for example, expose a new problem, advocate a new
approach, re-frame or debunk existing work, report unexpected results 
from a
deployment, or propose new evaluation methodologies. We especially 
encourage
submissions of early-stage work and enticing but unproven ideas.
