The objective of GCN 2011 is to facilitate an exchange of information on best practices for the latest research advances in the area of green communications and networks, which mainly includes the intelligent control, or efficient management, or optimal design of access network infrastructures, home networks, terminal equipment, and etc. Topics of interests include network design methodology, enabling technologies, network components and devices, applications, others and emerging new topics.

Green communications and networks, with the aiming of energy costs and CO2 emissions' reducing, and environment protecting, has become a potential research focus for all the next-generation communications' and networks' designers. Therefore it is timely to set up forums for researchers and developers to discuss features and exchange ideas on all challenges and solutions for green communications and networks The proceedings of GCN2011 will provide a forum for engineers and scientists in academia, industry, and government to address the most innovative research and development including technical challenges, social and economic issues, and to discuss their ideas, results, work in progress and experience on all aspects of advanced green communications and networks engineering Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
