With rising energy cost and growing environmental concerns, GREEN COMPUTING is receiving more and more attention. Software and system architectures play a crucial role in both computing and telecommunication systems, and they have been analysed 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. For example, high energy consuming always leads to higher operational cost of the system. High energy consumption also implies more heat produced, thus, more power is required for cooling-down. As the number of computers is increasing day by day, so is the amount of electricity consumed by them which in turn is increasing the carbon content in atmosphe...

The main motive of green computing technology is to protect the environment and food chain system from the hazardous effect increasing per year on a large basis. This study gives the brief account of green computing. The main focus and attention of this paper is to completion of work without any wastage and deviation by reducing the usage of energy in each working environment. There are so many fundamental steps which is being taken to reduce power utilization , Also considered the equipment recycling, reduction of paper usage, virtualization, cloud computing.

Cloud computing is a dynamic technology with various application spheres because of its scalability, cost-effectiveness, and reliability. However, since the energy demand for information and Communication Technologies (ICT) is on the rise, cloud computing is facing new challenges related to environmental protection, power consumption, energy efficiency, and carbon dioxide emissions. The latest technologies that strive for sustainable energy efficiency and a reduced e-waste and carbon footprint are constantly being researched and deployed. These technologies have the potential to transform cloud computing into green cloud computing. In this survey, the authors investigated recent research methodologies such as algorithm-based, architecture-based, framework-based, model-based, methods-based, and general issue-based approaches. Many of these research projects are still in their infancy and are yet to be commercially implemented. The last thing that was talked about was some future rese...

Green Computing concept cover a list of technologies, laws, protocols, standards, regulations, initiatives, certifications, company groups, computing style and lifestyles applied to IT (Information Technology ). In this paper we do a little introduction of this concept plenty of meanings to make a better understanding of it. We focus on the technologies applied from top to bottom, from datacenter to the inside of the servers and the humans.

Green computing advocates for the efficient and effective use of IT resources (hardware or software), in order to minimize its adverse impact on the environment. Cloud computing provides the default mechanisms of green computing by provisioning the IT infrastructure on need basis. Cloud ensures the controlled use of IT infrastructure by centralizing the IT resources at the back end in the form of large data centers where the environment protection routines and measures deployed effectively. The present paper introduces and outlines the need of green computing. A brief review of the techniques and methodologies proposed in literature to achieve green computing also presented in the paper.

The environment is the surroundings or conditions in which a human being, animal, or plant lives or operates. It is the sole responsibility of human being (a social animal) to safe guard the nature. With the invention of new technologies, there is a threat to the nature and resulted in global warming. Global warming means an increase in the earth's average atmospheric temperature that causes corresponding changes in climate and that may result from the green house effect. With Information Technology at its peak, it is also contributing heavily to global warming. Hence, Green computing. Green Computing is the study and practices of designing, manufacturing, using & disposing of computers, servers and associated subsystems of computers such as monitors, printers, storage devices and networking and communications systems efficiently and effectively with minimal or no impact on the environment. Most of the IT Companies / Departments are a source for excessive power use, excessive spending of resources and uses many toxic materials. In this paper we discuss about several issues in the EcoSystem because of IT ,Current Green computing Technologies , proposed practices and potential research areas in green computing (IT related)..

Green Computing is now under the attention of not only environmental organizations, but also businesses from other industries. In recent years, companies in the computer industry have come to realize that going green is in their best interest, both in terms of public relations and reduced costs. This paper will take a look at several green initiatives currently under way in the computer industry.

Green computing, also called green technology, is the environmentally sustainable to use of computers and related resources l ike - monitors, printer, storage devices, networking and communication systems - efficiently and effectively with minimal or no imp act on the environment. The principle behind energy efficient coding is to save power by getting software to make less use of the hardware, rather than continuing to run the same code on hardware that uses less power. This paper, first discuss the connota t ion of green computing and sketch researcher’s view on the next generation of IT systems for green computing. This paper will he lp the researchers and administrators to have a clear understanding of Green Computing and Green Cloud Computing. It also defin es the security issues and the solution methods to these issues. Green computing is the environmentally responsible use of compu ters and related resources Servers and Peripherals as well as reduced resource consumption and proper disposal of electronic was te (e - waste). Finally, paper point out future directions of research and conclude the paper

Today the importance of going green has been realized both in terms of environmental issues and cost minimization by implementing different strategies and policies by the ICT industry. Going green suggests the environmentally responsible practice of computers and related resources of ICT. For a sustainable environment, today Green Computing is an emerging topic, because of efficient power usage, minimal or no emission of carbon footprint, also proper disposal of electronic waste (e-waste), and many more, thus to take less participation in the global warming phenomenon. In this study, emphasis has given on diminishing the energy and carbon footprint of computer and its related resources like monitors, printers using green computing.
