In the era of IoT proliferation and environmental urgency, Green IoT has become pivotal for sustainable development, demanding intelligent synergies between sensing and communications to minimize energy consumption and environmental impact. As IoT permeates domains like smart cities, agriculture, and industrial automation, harmonizing data acquisition (sensing) and transmission (communications) is critical. Challenges include balancing high-resolution sensing with energy-efficient protocols (e.g., LoRaWAN, NB-IoT), ensuring interoperability across heterogeneous devices, managing data-energy trade-offs, and addressing e-waste through modular designs. Industry benefits from cost-efficient automation, while academia drives innovations in lightweight AI, edge intelligence, and integrated sensing-communication (ISAC) paradigms.
Given the strong interest in both industry and academia in green IoT, this workshop explores solutions to unify sensing and communications for sustainable IoT. By leveraging AI-driven resource allocation, containerized network orchestration, and energy-harvesting technologies, we aim to advance frameworks that reduce redundancy, optimize lifecycle sustainability, and enable real-world applications—from smart grids to intelligent transportation.
