Handbook of Green Information and Communication SystemsHandbook of Green Information and Communication Systems
This book presents selected contemporary research and development topics on technologies, computing and communication architectures, in green communications, computing, information, and networking systems.
Nowadays, with the escalating energy costs and the greater awareness of the wireless communications and networking industry and global warming impact on the environment, there is a clear demand for developing more energy efficient ‘green communications’ while improving the power efficiency in information, communication and network systems.
Edited by worldwide leading experts, this book provides a comprehensive guide to selected topics, both ongoing and emerging, in green communications, computing, information, and networking systems.
Consisting of contributions from well known and high profile researchers and scientists in their respective specialties, coverage includes smart grid technologies and communications, spectrum management, cognitive and autonomous radio systems, computing and communication architectures, data centres, distributed networking, cloud computing, next generation wireless communication systems, 4G access networking, optical core networks, cooperation transmission, and security and privacy.
Key Features:
- Discusses existing and emerging communications and computing models, design architectures, technology and research and development challenges in green communications, computing, information, and networking systems
- Provides a unified covering of otherwise disperse selected topics on green computing, information, communication and networking
- Includes a set of downloadable PowerPoint slides and glossary of terms for each chapter
