This project focuses on finding the limits of communication networks in terms of energy efficiency that can establish key design principles to enable a sustainable operation of future wireless systems to support different types of end applications. To reach such an ambitious goal, ECO-NEWS has a complementary consortium composed of two research teams, one from LUT and the other from Tampere University. The research work will be built upon fundamental results from physics of computation, information thermodynamics, information and communication theories in order to rearticulate them in a way to allow the derivation of new energy-related performance bounds and energy-efficient design principles. The project will be mostly based on data generated through mathematical equations and simulations. ECO-NEWS is expected to contribute to a truly sustainable green-digital transition.
