1/3: Very happy that LOCO, the International #Workshop on #Low #Carbon #Computing we started two years ago, is going to take place again! Adrian Friday and team will host #LOCO2026 in Lancaster and online on September 10 and 11 this year! 💻 🌱 lancaster-university.github.io/loco2026/
Happy to share the details of the keynote talks and accepted papers that will make up the program of the 4th International Workshop on Testing Distributed Internet of Things Systems #TDIS2026, which will take place on 27 April with ACM #EuroSys 2026 in Edinburgh! More info: tdis.gitlab.io/tdis26/
We had a fantastic away day as the Carbon-Conscious Computing lab (lauritzthamsen.org/lab/) of the University of Glasgow last week! 💻 ☁️ 🌱 In keeping with our mission, we took our bikes out for a ride around the Isle of Bute! 🚉 ⛴️ 🌊
4: Kathleen will be presenting a short paper on Carbon-Aware Workflow Execution, arxiv.org/abs/2503.13705. This will be Kathleen's first talk at a conference and we are actively working on extending our results in the EPSRC-funded project Casper, so you are most welcome to provide helpful feedback!
Exploring the Potential of Carbon-Aware Execution for Scientific Workflows
Scientific workflows are widely used to automate scientific data analysis and often involve processing large quantities of data on compute clusters. As such, their execution tends to be long-running a...

PROPL, the workshop that inspired us to organize LOCO, is back! This time it'll take place with both ICFP and SPLASH. Have a look at the website if programming/computing as a force for good is something you care about! 💻🌍🌱📄👇
The 2nd Programming for the Planet workshop will be hybrid and co-located with ICFP/SPLASH in October in Singapore! Our call for papers is out at conf.researchr.org/home/icfp-sp..., submission deadline 3rd July 2025.
It’s been two weeks since we held the 1st International Workshop on Low-Carbon Computing (LOCO), and I'm still buzzing. It was so good to see this community come together, hear about all the interesting ideas and early results, and witness how many care deeply about computer system sustainability! 🧵
Just a few days now till #LOCO2024 – the 1st International Workshop on Low Carbon Computing! 💻 🔬 🌱 The final programme for the whole of Tuesday 3 December is now available on our workshop website, www.sicsa.ac.uk/loco/loco202...

Only three more days to apply to join us as a (PD)RA on the EPSRC-funded #Casper project. Together with our partners at HU Berlin, AWS, and the BBC, we will be researching how the execution of scalable batch processing applications can be aligned with the availability of low-carbon energy! ☁️💻🌱
📢 A reminder that I am looking for a capable and ambitious researcher for my #EPSRC #NIA #project on Carbon-Aware Scalable Processing from early next year. Applications for the #PDRA/#RA position are due on 21-Nov-2024 at 23:45h UK time: jobs.ac.uk/job/DKI680/r... 📢 #hiring #researcher
