IEEE Access invites manuscript submissions in the area of Big Data for
Green Communications and Computing. With the rapid growth of data in the
past few years, information and communication technologies have made
significant impacts on global environments on both positive and negative
aspects. International efforts have started to advance green energy
initiatives to create sustainable energy systems to support economic and
societal development. Generation of huge amounts of data, called Big Data,
across different sectors such as banking, healthcare, retail and education,
among others, is creating the need for an efficient tool to manage this
data. Conventional database management tools do not have the capability to
manage surging volumes of unstructured data. For example, more than 80% of
data is unstructured in the form of videos, tweets, GPS coordinates and
emails, which means that decisions need to be made at high velocity. Data
is expected to exponentially grow through data collected via pervasive
sensors and/or the Internet. It also leads to new emerging challenges that
have the potential to create more accurate solutions for science and
technologies. We believe that big data has a significant impact on green
communications and computing, which aims to provide energy-sustainable,
resource-saving, and environment-friendly
solutions. But how can one leverage the use of Big Data technology in order
to become really green? For this Special Section in IEEE Access, we invite
academic and industrial researchers to identify and discuss technical
challenges and recent results on new concepts and technologies to achieve
green communications and computing, as well as new ideas in big data for
green communications and computing applications and services. The
contributions may present novel concepts, ideas, models, methodologies,
system design, and experiments for providing objective comparisons between
potential ideas and solutions. Topics of interest include, but are not
limited to: Big Data for green network modeling, green networking and
protocols, green communication management, green network architecture
design, green data center networking and computing, green network security,
privacy, and trust, and green network fault tolerance.
