CLOSED: Call for Papers: Special Issue on Sustainable Computing
IEEE Internet Computing seeks submissions for this upcoming special issue.
Publication: March/April 2025
The rapid growth of today’s computing and networking infrastructure, such as data centers, cloud platforms, and cellular networks, is being driven by continuing advances and new applications in machine learning, augmented reality, and scientific computing. This has led to a sharp rise in the carbon footprint of computing, raising environmental concerns. As such, the design of sustainable computing and network systems has emerged as an urgent research need to decarbonize these systems and make them carbon-efficient.
IEEE Internet Computing magazine invites researchers and industry experts to contribute to our forthcoming special issue on Sustainable Computing. The objective of this special issue is to enable researchers and practitioners to share novel and high-quality contributions related to all aspects of Sustainable Computing. The special issue will take a broad view of systems and network research, relevant metrics, and hardware and software infrastructure related to sustainability. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Sustainable cloud and edge computing
Sustainable networking
Sustainability metrics for computing and networking
Embodied and operational carbon management
Carbon-aware resource management
Carbon-aware application design
Lifecycle optimization of computing systems
Grid-data center interactions
