CFP: https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/computer-communications/about/call-for-papers#special-issue-on-artificial-intelligence-meeting-green-edge-cloud-computing   Edge-Cloud Computing (ECC) is an emerging distributed paradigm to implement edge offloading, in which complex tasks are migrated from IoT devices to edge-cloud servers. In particular, Green Edge-Cloud Computing (GECC) is a novel concept focused on the core problem of energy management in the whole architecture, that is closely related to task dispatch, resource scheduling, network communication and so on. It is obvious that GECC holds great promise in energy-sensitive domains, such as smart grid, Internet of vehicles, healthcare. With the great development of intelligent algorithms, AI is a powerful analysis technology that is well applied to dealing with the energy management in GECC. It is efficient to utilize deep learning to implement the task allocation of edge servers and reduce the energy consumption of the whole system. Technical scope of this special issue includes, but is not limited to:Design of AI-based energy-efficient architecture in GECCTheoretical analysis of energy management in GECCAI-based applications of GECC in energy managementAI for energy management in GECCDeployment of federated learning in GECCAI-based task Scheduling in GECCResource management for federated learning in GECCSecurity and privacy in GECCEnergy optimization of federated learning in GECC Guest editors:Xiaokang Zhou, Ph.DXiaolong Xu, Ph.DZheng Yan, Ph.DKe Yan, Ph.D Manuscript submission information:The journal's submission platform (Editorial Manager®) will be open for submissions to this Special Issue from December 30th, 2023.

CFP: https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/applied-energy/about/call-for-papers   The increment of carbon (CO2) emission levels for different scale societies, has become one of the top concerns for major countries across the world. Recently, AI-based carbon emission modelling provides an important clue tackling the above-mentioned issue and soon becomes a critical topic in the field of applied energy. The emerging artificial intelligence (AI) related technologies, including machine learning, data mining, time series data analytics, physics informed data models, data-driven prediction and forecasting, Internet of things (IoT), sensor networks and edge computing, provide unlimited possibilities and opportunities for new data-driven solutions for energy saving and forecasting, clean energy optimization and carbon emission minimization. There are existing obstacles and research gaps adopting AI, machine learning, including deep learning technologies for carbon emission evaluation and forecasting due to the uncertainty and unclear performance in current/future generation smart building and smart city environment. The special issue, therefore, provides a forum for researchers and scientists to exchange quality research solutions and results to tackle the carbon emission issues utilizing the emerging AI related technologies for a low-carbon society. Both data-driven and physical model-based forecasting techniques are interested, targeting on more interpretable and efficient carbon emission modelling.
