History
•In 1992, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
launched Energy Star to promote energy-efficiency
in computers.
•The term Green Computing coined shortly after
energy star began.
•The first success of green computing was the
Sleep mode function
•Wipro became the first Indian company to launch
environment-friendly range of desktops and laptops,
compliant with RoHS
It is the study of design, manufacturing, using
and disposing of computer devices in such a
way that reduce environment impact.
– Pollution
• Manufacturing techniques
• Packaging
• Disposal of computers and components
– Toxicity
• There are toxic chemicals used in the manufacturing of
computers and components which can enter the food
chain and water!
Green Use :Minimizing electricity consumption
Green Design :Designing energy-efficient
computers and other Devices.
Green Disposal: Re-making of existing Computer
or recycling, unwanted electronic equipment.
Green Manufacturing: Minimizing waste during the
manufacturing of computers and other
subsystems to reduce environmental impact of
these activates.
Virtualization
Power Management
Algorithm Efficiency
Material Recycling
The process of running two or more logical
computer systems on one set of hardware
• Virtualization helps a company /
enterprise lower power and cooling
consumption, by reducing the
number of machines and
servers it needs.
• Virtualization platforms can run
across hundreds of
interconnected physical computers
and storage devices, to create an
entire virtual infrastructure.
• Turn off computers and
printers when not in use.
