Workshop description :<br>
<br>
Improving the energy efficiency of large-scale distributed
systems (e.g.<br>
data centres and Clouds) is a key challenge for both academic and<br>
industrial organizations. Although the topic has gained lots of<br>
attention over the past years, some of the proposed solutions
often seem<br>
conservative and not easily applicable to large-scale systems.
Their<br>
impact at large-scale remains to be proved. Hence, this workshop
aims to<br>
provide a venue for discussion of ideas that can demonstrate "more
than<br>
small % solution" to energy efficiency and their applicability to
"real<br>
world". <br>
<br>
After the success of ExtremGreen2013 workshop, the
ExtremeGreen2014 workshop will focus on scientific and<br>
industrial approaches and solutions that could have a large impact
in<br>
terms of energy savings and energy efficiency. Clean-slate
approaches<br>
and innovative solutions breaking conventional approaches are
welcome.<br>
The workshop also welcomes submissions of work-in-progress papers
on<br>
ideas that can have a large impact on improving the energy
efficiency of<br>
large-scale distributed systems. The papers must provide
preliminary<br>
results that demonstrate the originality and possible impact of
the<br>
proposed solutions. Submissions will be reviewed by an
international<br>
group of experts in distributed systems and energy efficiency.<br>
