  3. Sustainable Computing – Without the Hot Air
  4. Green Computing Approaches - A Survey

Green Data Centers

  1. Metrics for Sustainability in Data Centers
  2. The Odd One Out: Energy is not like Other Metrics
  3. A Systematic Review on Effective Energy Utilization Management Strategies in Cloud Data Centers
  4. Enabling Sustainable Clouds: The Case for Virtualizing the Energy System
  5. Treehouse: A Case For Carbon-Aware Datacenter Software
  6. Energy-Efficient Hybrid Framework for Green Cloud Computing

Green Networking

  1. Greener, Energy-Efficient and Sustainable Networks: State-Of-The-Art and New Trends

Toward Sustainable Software for HPC, Cloud, and AI Workloads

Software applications are considerable consumers of computing resources, leading to a significant carbon footprint. Recent estimates suggest that Information Technology accounts for approximately 11% of global energy consumption . Projections indicate that by 2030, data centers alone could account for 3–13% of global electricity use, a stark increase from the 1% recorded in 2010, propelled by escalating demands and emerging trends like large-scale AI workloads . The software industry is responsible for about 3% of global carbon emissions , which is very close to that associated with the aviation industry , and it could deteriorate if left unaddressed. Researchers have estimated that training a single machine learning algorithm for natural language processing may emit as much CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent) as a small town with 120 homes would emit in a year . Another study reported that AI workloads in data centers made up 15% of Google’s total electricity consumption, which was 18...

OneDataShare -- Fast, Scalable, and Flexible Data Sharing Made Easy

With the emergence of complex scientific applications, social media, video over IP, and more recently the trend for Internet of Things (IoT), the global data movement requirements have already exceeded the Exabyte scale. Large scientific experiments, such as environmental and coastal hazard prediction, climate modeling, genome mapping, and high-energy physics simulations generate data volumes reaching several Petabytes per year. Data collected from remote sensors and satellites, dynamic data-driven applications, social networks, digital libraries and preservations are also producing extremely large datasets for real-time or online processing.   This so called “data deluge” in the scientific applications necessitates collaboration and sharing among the national and international education and research institutions, which results in frequent large-scale data movement over wide-area networks. We see a similar trend in the commercial applications as well. According to a stud...
