Computing Community Consortium Blog

The goal of the Computing Community Consortium (CCC) is to catalyze the computing research community to debate longer range, more audacious research challenges; to build consensus around research visions; to evolve the most promising visions toward clearly defined initiatives; and to work with the funding organizations to move challenges and visions toward funding initiatives. The purpose of this blog is to provide a more immediate, online mechanism for dissemination of visioning concepts and community discussion/debate about them.

BuildSys 2012 Calling for Papers: Sensors, Buildings, Energy

May 11th, 2012 / in research horizons, resources / by Erwin Gianchandani

The organizers of BuildSys 2012 — ACM’s workshop on systems’ issues in the area of building controls, energy management, embedded, and networked sensors — have issued a call for papers. The workshop, which “provides an ideal convergence venue for the Sensor, Building, and Energy research communities to address the research challenges facing the design, deployment, use, and fundamental limits of these systems,” will take place in Toronto on Nov. 6th. Notable about this particular call: to encourage researchers to present truly visionary concepts at the interface between computing and sustainability, the Computing Community Consortium (CCC) is sponsoring awards to three Best Paper submissions to the workshop — as it has been doing at a number of research conferences in […]
