He was the leading Editor and the coauthor of the comprehensive book, titled Green Communications: Theoretical Fundamentals, Algorithms, and Applications (CRC Press, September 2012). Speech Title:Environmental Sustainability and Intelligence as well as General Green Technologies Abstract:Although the term of green has been often used to refer to energy consumption reduction or energy efficiency by many people and literatures, green actually should refer to environmental sustainability in more general senses. Environmental sustainability issues have been important topics for recent years, which has impacted and will further impact individuals, enterprises, governments, and societies. Environmental sustainability is not simply regarding reducing the amount of waste or using less energy, but relevant to developing processes leading to completely sustainable human society in the future. The long term consequences of the relevant serious issues have not yet been fully forecasted, but it has been generally accepted in many communities that immediate responses are necessary. From 30 November to 12 December 2015, the 21th United Nations Climate Change Conferences of the Parties (COP 21) was held in Paris, France, as the a historical breakthrough and milestone towards securing the future Earth, a global agreement on the reduction of climate change, the text of which represented a consensus of the representatives of more than 193 countries attending it, which was a profound milestone for global environmental sustainability. Nowadays there is another significant tendency on data driven intelligence. This talk would discuss the history, technical issues, challenges, and new trends of data driven environmental sustainability and Intelligence. Further this talk will extend the view to general green technologies. |
