The rapid evolution of communication networks, which are expected to further grow in complexity and scale, has significantly improved global connectivity. However, this growth also led to a substantial increase in energy consumption, contributing to global carbon emissions and raising environmental concerns.
As networks expand, the processes involved in data transmission require increasingly complex computations, resulting in higher energy usage. For example, routing protocols like the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) make routing decisions based on the fastest and most reliable network paths. However, this focus on performance raises the question of whether these paths are also sustainable. Similarly, modern security measures to protect against network attacks, often implemented in the cloud, require additional transmission and computational resources. It is questionable whether the energy cost of this additional processing justifies the enhanced security or whether more sustainable alternatives exist.
The goal of this project is to identify and quantify sustainability metrics of networking processes. This includes developing methods to assess the environmental impact of various components, such as routing protocols, measurement techniques, and security mechanisms. Additionally, the project aims to propose innovative solutions that balance the need for high-performance, secure communication with the imperative of reducing the carbon footprint of modern networks.
**Your profile**:
- A Master's Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related discipline;
