3 December 2024 – hybrid event hosted in Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom 
 
The 1st International Workshop on Low Carbon Computing (LOCO 2024) aims to provide a forum for ideas, work, and criticism that aims to reduce the emissions from computing. We invite researchers and practitioners across research areas and application domains to take part and contribute to our workshop. The main focus of the workshop is on the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from computing. However, computing science research and practice that helps to reduce other emissions or to mitigate the effects of climate change in another ways is also in scope.

We welcome submissions that describe new ideas and visions, just as much as reports describing ongoing work, completed projects, and practical tools. In addition, we also welcome work that uncovers and criticises significant problems with established ways and emerging trends.

Topics of interest for LOCO 2024 include but are not limited to:

- Measurements, testbeds, and simulation
- Sustainable software engineering
- Energy efficiency
- Hardware efficiency
- Carbon awareness
- Embodied carbon and circular economy
- Frugal computing
- Computing for climate science, other scientific computing, and energy informatics
