Top minds in energy solutions asked to come forward in a sweeping call for papers
DALLAS (July 9, 2011) – Organizers of the Fourth Annual Green Technologies Conference produced by Section 5 of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), which includes Dallas/Fort Worth, have announced a call for paper submissions in dynamic energy solutions.
The conference will be held April 19-22, 2012, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Papers are solicited beginning August 1, 2011, with a deadline for submission of November 11, 2011.
“We are particularly looking for papers covering eight areas of study,” said conference chair Sophie Liu, “and submission information is available at the conference website.” Liu disclosed the search to Colonel Mason, managing editor and host of the science program, the Promise of Tomorrow aired on the ScienceNews radio network, who will be giving press coverage to the conference. The radio programs originate in Dallas and past programs are archived at the website.
The eight areas of study include: 1) energy generation and storage technologies such as nuclear, wind, solar, water, geothermal, biomass, energy harvesting and storage; 2) energy usage reduction and conservation, including energy management, planning and forecasting, home and commercial automation, and innovative HVAC and lighting; 3) architectural and engineering sustainable designs, including strategies for sustainability, performance evaluation, use of green building components, and green systems management; 4) environmental, legal, social, economic, and political impacts including emerging standards for renewable and reduced carbon emission energy sources, safety, technologies for developed and underdeveloped countries; 5) smart grid communication and control, evolution and integration of renewable and reduced emission energy sources; 6) protection of the environment, including oil spill prevention and control; 7) green IT and sustainable computing, including IT de-manufacturing and legitimate recycling, energy efficient IT solutions, network concepts and architectures for lowering energy consumption, energy efficient algorithms, sensor networks for climate and disaster monitoring, and power-aware software design and development; 8) biofuels and emerging fuels technology generating combustion fuels from renewable sources such as algae, non-food plants, and vegetable oils.
