Introduction
Computers, communication systems and other IT infrastructure have been posing severe environmental problems by consuming
significant amounts of electricity, increasing greenhouse gas emissions, and causing pollution during their production and disposal. To
reduce these environmental problems and create a sustainable environment, new models, algorithms, methodologies, tools and
systems are needed so we can generate green IT systems with high energy efficiency, low greenhouse gas omissions, less harmful
materials and easily being reused and recycled. The goal of GreenCom 2011 is to provide a forum for scientists, engineers, and
researchers to discuss and exchange their new ideas, novel results, work in progress and experiences on all aspects of green
computing and communications, as well as to identify emerging research topics and define the future directions.
