EAI GreeNets 2021 will be held as a fully-fledged online conference.

In 2020, EAI successfully launched an online conference format to ensure the safetycomfort and quality of experience for attendees and a successful course of the events, all while retaining fully live interactionpublication and indexing. Due to the unrelenting global pandemic, this will also be the case in 2021.
Although we will miss having everyone meet and connect in person, we feel strongly that knowledge exchange must continue, if not more so. That is why we have equipped our online conferences with live viewing with chatvirtual Q&A, and a multitude of other measures to provide you with a great experience. All of this while making the registration for co-authors and non-authors completely free to give you the biggest possible audience. Learn more about EAI’s online conferences here.

Scope

Coping with global climate change has become a major issue related to the economic and social development all over the world. Low carbon economy and energy conservation and emission reduction have become the focus of attention. Low carbon and emission reduction is conducive to alleviate the resource constraints of world economic development, adjust and optimize economic institutions and change the mode of economic development. As the basic, leading and strategic industry of economic development, information industry undertakes the important responsibility of adjusting economic structure, transforming development mode and building a low-carbon society. Energy saving and emission reduction of information industry has important practical significance. With the development of 5G and artificial intelligence (AI), green energy, communication and network are also focused again, and their broad themes are crucial for ensuring a balance between economic growth and environmental sustainability. In this context, growing global concern leads to the adoption of new technological paradigms, especially for the operation of future Smart Cities.

The GreeNets 2021 conference aims to establish an international and multidisciplinary discussion opportunity for academic scientists, researchers, and professionals to exchange ideas and recent results (both positive and negative ones) in green energy, communications and networking. Recent developments and applications in AI are also of great interests.

Paper submission

Papers should be submitted through EAI ‘Confy+‘ system, and have to comply with the EAI Core format (see Author’s kit section).

All conference papers undergo a thorough peer review process prior to the final decision and publication. This process is facilitated by experts in the Technical Program Committee during a dedicated conference period. Standard peer review is enhanced by EAI Community Review which allows EAI members to bid to review specific papers. All review assignments are ultimately decided by the responsible Technical Program Committee Members while the Technical Program Committee Chair is responsible for the final acceptance selection. You can learn more about Community Review here.
