and Beyond</span></p>
<p><a href="https://www.journals.elsevier.com/computer-communications/call-for-papers/aigreencommnet5gandbeyond" target="_blank">https://www.journals.elsevier.com/computer-communications/call-for-papers/aigreencommnet5gandbeyond</a></p><p><span style="font-size: 13.000000pt; font-family: 'TimesNewRomanPSMT'">Green communication networks, with a focus on energy efficiency, is an
emerging technological trend of great significance. These networks can significantly
enhance sustainability for 5G and beyond networks with regard to power resources and
environmental conditions. However, the high-density deployment of base stations and
the exponentially increasing use of sensors and actuators in 5G and beyond networks,
will lead to significant energy consumption. Thus, reducing carbon footprint in green
communication networks is a key challenge facing researchers in academia and industry.
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 13.000000pt; font-family: 'TimesNewRomanPSMT'">Due to the growing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in this area, several green
communication approaches are entering a more mature phase, with exciting
applications in various networks. Moreover, the information sharing and intelligent
decision-making capabilities help recent green communication networks play an
important role in improving not only energy efficiency but also network performance.
For instance, a simple and effective green communication solution is to place a device
in intelligent sleep mode; this is achieved with the help of various MAC protocols with
broad applications in wireless networks. However, it is essential to investigate the trade-
off between the energy efficiency for green communication networks, and the network
requirements. Moreover, it is crucial to evaluate the performance concerning the energy
consumption, the throughput, and the response time, regarding 5G and beyond networks.
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 13.000000pt; font-family: 'TimesNewRomanPSMT'">This Special Issue on Artificially Intelligent Green Communication Networks
for 5G and Beyond in Computer Communications solicits submissions of high-quality
and unpublished articles that aim to address the technical problems and challenges
concerning green communications networks. In particular, we seek submissions, which
efficiently integrate novel AI approaches, focusing on network performance evaluation
across existing green communication solutions. Both theoretical and experimental
