Green Computing: Current Research Trends

Vallabhi Ghansawant

Abstract: Green computing in a broader way is the practices and procedures of designing, manufacturing, using of computing resources in an environment friendly way while maintaining overall computing performance and finally disposing in a way that reduces their environmental impact. This means reduction in use of hazardous materials, maximizing output from the product during its lifetime while minimizing energy consumption and also reusability or recyclability and biodegradability of used products and wastes. Many corporate organizations are taking initiatives to reduce the harmful impact of their operations on the environment. United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC) is an international environment treaty whose objective is to stabilize the emission of green house gases in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the eco system. Sustainable development means developing without damaging the requirements of the future generations. That is meeting human development goals while preserving natural resources and ecosystems on which the society depends. This paper is a survey of several important current researches related to the field of green computing which emphasises the importance of green computing for sustainable development.
