GREEN COMPUTING
Green computing is the study
and practice of using
computing resources efficiently.
Green computingor Green IT
goals are similar to green
chemistry.

History
The term green computing was
probably coined shortly after the
energy star program began way
back in 1992.

Core objectives of
green computing
strategies

Minimizing energy consumption

Purchasing green energy
Reducing paper and other
consumable use
Reducing travel requirements for
employees and consumer

WHY GO
GREEN?
computer energy is
often wasteful
pollution
Reliability of
power

APPROACHE
SVirtualization
Power management
IT equipment
recycling
Remote conferencing &
telecommuting
strategies

The goal of green

computing

Reduced the use of hazardous

material, maximize the energy
efficiency during the product lifetime.
Research continuous in to key areas
such as making use of computers as
energy efficient as possible.

Pathways to green
computing

Green use :-

Green disposal : Green design : Green manufacturing :-

Recent Implementation of
Green Computing
Blackle : Zonbu computer : Sunray thin client : Asus EEE pc :-

BLACKLE
Search-engine site powered
by Google Search.
White consumes 74W
whereas black it consumes
only 59W.
Different colors consumes
different
amounts
of
energy.

ZONBU COMPUTER
New and energy
efficient PC.
Runs the Linux OS
using
1.2GH
processor & 512MH
of RAM.
Consumes
one
third of the power
of a typical light
bulb.

ASUS EEE PC
The Asus Eee PC is one
example of an
ultraportable.
Factors of ultraportable
combine to enable them
to run more efficiently
and use less power than
a standard Form factor
laptop.

ADVANTAGES
&DISADVANTAGES
Advantage:
By conserving resources
Reduced usage of energy
Save more money per year
Disadvantage:
costly
Still in experimental stage.

Future of green
computing

CONCLUSION
The features of a green computer of
tomorrow

would

be

like:

efficiency,

manufacturing & materials, recyclability,

service model, self-powering, and other
trends.
The

greenest

computer

will

not

miraculously fall from the sky one day.
