Call for Papers | GreenSys: 2nd International Workshop on Systems and Methods for Sustainable Large-Scale AI

We invite contributions to the workshop proceedings. The workshop aims to provide a platform for authors to present work in progress or early-stage research within this domain. Presenters are encouraged to share ongoing projects, fostering constructive feedback and stimulating dialogue. This interactive setting will promote collaboration among participants, including the audience and distinguished researchers delivering invited talks.

Topics

We invite authors to submit research contributions across all areas of sustainable AI. Topics of interest include energy-aware training and inference methods, carbon-conscious large-scale AI systems, and studies analyzing the environmental impacts of AI—such as water usage, energy consumption, and carbon footprints. We also welcome work on platforms and architectures designed for sustainable computing. Specific topics include, but are not limited to

Sustainable AI Systems
AI Data Center Optimizations
Analysis of Environmental impact of AI (Energy, Water, and Carbon Footprints, etc..)
Energy-Efficient AIOps
Power-Aware Workload Management
Dynamic Inference Orchestration
Hardware-Software Co-design Methods
AI on Resource-Constrained Edge Devices
Software Engineering Practices for Energy-Aware AI
Carbon-Aware AI Lifecycle Management

Submission Guidelines

Authors are invited to submit original and unpublished research papers to GreenSys ‘26 describing work that is not currently under review at other venues. We especially welcome innovative, early-stage ideas and preliminary results.

Submissions must be formatted as PDF files using the latest ACM sigconf proceedings template (10-pt font, double-column) and must not exceed 6 pages, including references. This workshop follows a single-blind review process; therefore, the first page must include author names, affiliations, and contact information.

All submissions will undergo independent peer review, and accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library.

Submissions must be done electronically via HotCRP https://greensys26.hotcrp.com/

Attendance and Presentation

Please note that at least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and present the work at the workshop for it to be included in the proceedings.
