Scope

The question of energy savings is a matter of concern since a long time in the mobile distributed systems. However, for the large-scale non-mobile distributed systems, which nowadays reach impressive sizes, the energy dimension just starts to be taken into account. The E2GC2 workshop will focus on Green and energy efficient approaches, ideas, practical solutions, experiments and framewords dedicated to medium and large scale distributed infrastructures like Grids, clouds and clusters.

Topics of interest addressed by the E2GC2 workshop include, but are not limited to:

• Green architectures for Grids, Clouds and clusters
• Large scale energy monitoring systems
• Energy efficient infrastructures
• Energy efficient scheduling in Grids and clouds
• Virtualization impact for energy reduction
• Energy savings and QoS
• Reporting and exposing carbon and energy impact
• Energy efficient large scale applications
• Energy efficiency benchmarking
• Energy consumption modeling and prediction
• Real life experiments
• Green standards
