Green programming in the software

Abstract

Green Technologies is described as the efficient use of computational resources belittling environmental damage, expanding its economic possibility and affirming social needs. This in such a way can be defined as a set of methods that reduce the computing impact on the environment, in such a way that the recycling of the many components used is considered in order to give other people the possibility of continuing to obtain the take advantage of this technology. It not only identifies the main energy consumers and manufacturers of environmental waste, but it offers you the development of green computer products and in such a way promotes computer recycling. As for green software, in 1992, the US Environmental Protection Agency launched Energy Star, a voluntary labeling program to originate and record energy efficiency in computers, climate monitoring units, and other technological methods. As for Some of the technologies classified as green because they support the reduction in energy consumption or carbon dioxide emissions are cloud computing, grid computing, virtualization in data centers and teleworking. The existence of green software clearly depends on where the energy used in the equipment where it is developed and used starts from. This is an area in which it is not always easy to work, primarily due to the impact of computers and servers at points in the environment for powering the equipment.
