"This book focuses on information technology using sustainable green computing to reduce energy and resources used"--Provided by publisher.
The 18 papers in this volume address the need to monitor the energy and resources consumed by the information and communication technology industry, and identify ways computers can support environmental practices. German researchers propose a self-optimizing technique for IT infrastructures that automatically tunes the energy efficiency of IT systems, and Japanese researchers present algorithms for selecting a server from a cluster that reduces total power consumption. Other topics include multidimensional analysis of supply chain environmental performance, mitigating the environmental impact of smartphones with device reuse, video compression for portable and low-power applications, and a hybrid energy system based on photovoltaic and fuel cells.
