The 2010 International Workshop on Green Communication of Cellular Networks will be held in conjunction with (GreenCom 2010), Dec. 18-20, 2010, Hangzhou, China.

Today, the whole world of telecommunications and information communities is facing a more and more serious challenge, namely on one side the transmitted multimedia-rich data are exploding at an astonishing speed and on the other side the total energy consumption by the communication and networking devices and the relevant global CO2 emission are increasing terribly. With the continuous expansion of cellular networks scale, the num-
bers of core device, power system, engine room and base station are increasing greatly, which lead to energy consumption seriously. Thus, green communications with the aiming of energy costs and CO2 emissionsreduc-
ing, and environment protecting, has become a potential research focus for the cellular networksdesigners. To meet the requirement of low-carbon economy development, it is necessary to reduce the operation expenditure or energy consumption of cellular networks, while maintaining acceptable quality of service. To solve these pro-
blems, some theory research and application technologies, such as energy-efficiency network architecture and protocols, interference modelling, cooperation architecture among base stations, cross-layer energy-efficiency optimization, traffic balance and energy-efficient cooperation transmission should be investigated to satisfy fut-
ure requirements from green cellular networks.
