4. Green Computing? Green computing is the environmentally responsible and eco-friendly use of computers and their resources. In broader terms, it is also defined as the study of designing, engineering, manufacturing, using and disposing of computing devices in a way that reduces their environmental impact.

5. Holistic Approach to Green IT

6. Brief History In 1992, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)  launched Energy Star, a voluntary labeling program which is designed to promote and recognize energy-efficiency in monitors, climate control equipment and other technologies. The EPA still plays a big role in providing energy effective methods, but also cost effective methods to consumers.

7. How Computing Harm Environment ?

8. Reasons and benefits for green IT research works Design for environmental sustainability; Energy-efficient computing; Power management; Data center design, layout, and location; Server virtualization; Responsible disposal and recycling; Regulatory compliance; Green metrics, assessment tools, and methodology; Environment-related risk mitigation; Use of renewable energy sources; Eco-labeling of IT products.

9. Research Approaches Product longevity : The biggest contribution to green computing usually is to prolong the equipment's lifetime. Data center design : Energy efficient data center design should address all of the energy use aspects included in a data center: from the IT equipment to the HVAC(Heating, ventilation and air conditioning) equipment to the actual location, configuration and construction of the building. Information technology (IT) systems Environmental conditions Air management Cooling systems Electrical systems

10. Research Approaches Software and deployment optimization Algorithmic efficiency : The efficiency of algorithms affects the amount of computer resources required for any given computing function and there are many efficiency trade-offs in writing programs. Virtualizing : Computer virtualization refers to the abstraction of computer resources, such as the process of running two or more logical computer systems on one set of physical hardware. The concept originated with the IBM mainframe operating systems of the 1960s, but was commercialized for x86-compatible computers only in the 1990s. With virtualization, a system administrator could combine several physical systems into virtual machines on one single, powerful system, thereby conserving resources by removing need for the original hardware and reducing power and cooling consumption.

11. Research Approaches.. Terminal servers : A terminal server is a server or network device that enables connections to multiple client systems to connect to a LAN network without using a modem or a network interface. Microsoft introduced this concept by releasing terminal services as a part of the Windows Server operating system. Power management Data center power Operating system support Power supply Storage Video card Display

12. Research Approaches.. Cloud computing : Cloud computing is the on-demand availability of computer system resources, especially data storage (cloud storage) and computing power, without direct active management by the user.  Edge Computing : Edge computing optimizes internet devices and web applications by bringing computing closer to the source of the data. This minimizes the need for long distance communications between client and server, which reduces latency and bandwidth usage. Telecommuting : Telecommuting, also called telework, teleworking, working from home, mobile work, remote work, and flexible workplace, is a work arrangement in which employees do not commute or travel to a central place of work, such as an office building, warehouse, or store.

16. Recent Trends in Green Computing Sharma, Manoj Kumar. "Software Level Green Computing with Multi-Core Processors using Fork-and-Join Framework." (2017). A study on Green Computing exploring the development of efficient computer programs using all the available cores of a CPU resulting in faster execution as compared to any single-core implementation of the program which further results in energy savings. A case study is also included supporting the study. Besides the study also pointed out that when number of computation is more the multi core approach showed superior performance else the performance is inferior as compared to the single-core computation.

17. Recent Trends in Green Computing Nitin S., and Rajesh B. Ingle. "Challenges in green computing for energy saving techniques." Emerging Trends & Innovation in ICT (ICEI), 2017 International Conference on. IEEE, 2017 Studied various techniques, models, algorithms, for energy competent green cloud computing . The technique used is virtualization . The study mainly involves consolidation of virtual machines(VMs). Power consumption can be decreased by deactivating and reactivating physical machines as per the existing demand of workload. The approaches discussed are centred around saving power and making data centers energy efficient

18. Recent Trends in Green Computing Mesaad, Mariam, et al. "Survey on the Global Green Computing Initiatives." International Journal of Computer Applications 167.7 (2017). provided an analysis of the current green computing initiatives and an overall comparison between them to show their efficiency. HP program is the greenest computing waste-management initiatives from the point of ewaste management. Considering Energy consumption, the Energy Star and EPEAT initiatives happen to be the most successful program based on the latest energy savings statistics and their users trusted labelling.
