Description
Our traditional " Environmental Computing Workshop" this year encourages speakers to imagine future directions in IT usage, in particular considering AI and Hybrid Quantum Computing as focus topics of ISGC 2025.
We welcome presenters to show their current developments in Environmental Computing (including Green Computing) and Disaster Mitigation. Aspects of constant and increasing importance are, with societal motivation, support for efficient disaster management and for the sustainable development goals. On the technical side, ML-based surrogate models promise to save considerable computing time and enable digital-twin type applications. Also, porting models to GPU- or quantum-accelerated architectures shall increase the efficiency of simulations. All this shall go along with energy efficiency efforts.
The workshop aims at a vivid exchange of knowledge on Disaster Management and Environmental Computing, giving participants a common understanding of the state of the art. The talk sessions may be complemented by a discussion, continuing in the line of the brainstorming sessions at last ISGC with the target of sparking project collaborations.
Talks should be about 20-40min in length (depending on the speaker's preference and slot availability). All attendees giving a talk can submit a full paper to the Proceedings of the International Symposium on Grids & Clouds 2025 (ISGC 2025). The ISGC 2025 proceedings will be published in the open-access Proceedings of Science (PoS) by SISSA, the International School for Advanced Studies of Trieste.

Quantum technologies represent a transformative leap in science but also in business. In recent years, quantum computing has evolved from a niche research area to a highly competitive technological frontier, with exponential growth described by Dowling’s and Neven's Law (Moore´s Law of Quantum) illustrating rapid advancements in processing power.
Significant global investments and efforts are...
