ACM eEnergy is the
premier forum for research at the intersection of computing and communication
technologies with energy systems. It has established a strong track record for
high-quality research in the application of computing and networked systems to
make legacy systems more energy-efficient and in the design, analysis, and
development of innovative energy systems. The Ninth International Conference on
Future Energy Systems (ACM e-Energy) will be held in Karlsruhe, Germany from
the 12th to the 15th of June 2018. By bringing together researchers in a
single-track conference designed to offer significant opportunities for
personal interaction, it is a major forum for shaping the future of this
area.
We seek high-quality papers at the intersection of computing and communication
technologies with energy systems. We welcome submissions describing conceptual
advances, as well as advances in system design, implementation and experimentation.
ACM e-Energy is committed to a fair, timely, and thorough review process with
sound and detailed feedback.
Relevant topics for the conference include, but are not limited to the
following:
Monitoring and control of energy systems for smart grids, smart buildings, and
smart cities
Energy-efficient computing and communication, including in data centers
Electric vehicles and energy-efficient transportation systems
Control of distribution and transmission networks
Microgrid and distributed generation management and control
Distributed energy resources, including energy storage resources
Privacy and security of smart grid infrastructure
Demand-side management, including innovative pricing and incentive design
Modeling and understanding the user behavior of energy systems enabled by
computing and communication technologies
Data analytics for the smart grid and energy-efficient systems
Electricity market and electricity supply chain measurement, modeling, and
analysis
Applications of cyber-physical systems and industrial Internet-of-Things to
smart energy systems
Submissions: Three types of contributions are solicited:
Full papers, up to 10 pages in 9-point ACM double-column format for the main
body of the paper (i.e., everything excluding references) and unlimited number
of pages for appendices and references, should present original theoretical
and/or experimental research in any of the areas listed above that has not been
published, accepted for publication, or under review by another workshop,
conference, or journal. The review of full papers will follow the standard
double-blind policy.
Notes, up to 4 pages in 9-point ACM double-column format for the main body of
the paper (i.e., everything excluding references) and unlimited number of pages
for appendices and references. Notes are intended to discuss preliminary
research results, advocate new research directions, or present industrial
projects. While notes are not expected to have extensive evaluations, they will
be reviewed based on the novelty of their ideas, potential for impact, and
quality of presentation. The review of note will also follow the standard
double-blind policy.
Poster/Demo descriptions, up to 2 pages in 9-point ACM double-column format
showcasing work in progress are encouraged. Accepted posters/demos will be
showcased in a separate session at the conference. Topics of interest are the
same as research topics listed above. Preference will be given to posters/demos
where the primary contribution is from one or more students. Industry
participation is also encouraged.
The submission must be in PDF format and be formatted according to the official
ACM Proceedings format. Papers that do not meet the size and formatting requirements
may not be reviewed. Word and LaTeX templates are available at http://www.acm.org/publications/article-templates/proceedings-template.html.
Submissions are to be made via the paper submission website: https://eenergy18.hotcrp.com /
