GREEN COMPUTING: An Approach to Green IT

Abstract

Abstract: Green computing can also be termed as Go-Green practice that assists lessening the carbon foot-print. Green computing facilitates us to a secure, safe and sound environment for the mankind. With rising energy cost and growing environmental concerns, GREEN COMPUTING is receiving more and more attention. . Software and system architectures (in terms of concurrency patterns) play a crucial role in both computing and telecommunication systems, and they have been analyzed for performance, reliability, maintainability, and security. Yet, little work on analysis based on the amount of energy that the CPU/processor will consume has been reported. Since most communication systems have to run 24/7 (e.g., most server farms, servers in a cloud computing infrastructure), the energy consumption of a system based on a specific software architecture is of great importance. Green Computing practices entail crafting, mechanizing, employing and disposing of computers proficiently with negligible impact on the atmosphere.
