  • Green Computing: Eco Friendly Technology
    International Journal of Engineering Research and General Science Volume 4, Issue 1, January-February, 2016 ISSN 2091-2730 Green Computing: Eco Friendly Technology Jugraj Veer Singh, Sonia Vatta School of Computer Science and Engineering Bahra University, Shimla Hills, India [email protected], [email protected] +917831830823 Abstract— Green computing is the study and practice of efficient and eco-friendly computing. Green computing is also called as green technology. 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. Green computing is the environmentally responsible use of computers and related resources. Such practices include the implementation of energy-efficient central processing units (CPUs), servers and peripherals as well as reduced resource consumption and proper disposal of electronic waste (e-waste).Green computing is also necessary for the future generation also. This work includes the use of green computing in today’s world and how the environment problems can reduced using green computing and how to protect the future by using the green technology. Keywords— green computing, energy star, approaches towards green computing, implementation of green computing and future of green computing. INTRODUCTION Green computing is also known as green information technology (green IT).Green computing is the environmentally responsible and eco-friendly use of computers and their resources [1].In broader terms, it is also defined as the study of designing, manufacturing/engineering, using and disposing of computing devices in a way that reduces their environmental impact.

  • The Journey to Cloud How the Cio Became a Better Business Partner
    THE JOURNEY TO CLOUD HOW THE CIO BECAME A BETTER BUSINESS PARTNER A MeetTheBoss TV ebook In collaboration with Hewlett Packard Enterprise 39 roundtables, 58.5 hours of conversation, 195 senior IT executives, one question: how can cloud computing help the CIO become a better business partner? INTRODUCTION: ABOUT THIS EBOOK MeetTheBoss TV and Hewlett Packard Enterprise have hosted 39 roundtables with senior IT professionals. Each roundtable is a 90-minute deep dive into the business impact of cloud computing, led by the executives and independently moderated by MeetTheBoss TV. This ebook gathers the highlights, challenges and learning from 39 roundtables, 58.5 hours of conversation, and 195 senior IT executives on the impact of cloud on the CIO. What does business really think? It’s all here. CHAPTER 1 HOW THE CIO BECAME A BETTER BUSINESS PARTNER: CLOUD’S THREE BIG IMPACTS By Adam Burns, Editor, MeetTheBoss TV In 2009, just six short years ago, Android was a babe in arms, netbooks were hot, and I interviewed Austin Adams, former CIO for JP Morgan Chase (and, according to Business 2.0, one of the 16 most influential technology people in the world). Austin’s most vital piece of advice for aspiring technology leaders? “It is being number one a business partner, and number two being seen as a business partner.” Today, Android is a global powerhouse, netbooks are no more, and that is still one of the challenges for a CIO. But it might not be tomorrow, because cloud computing has broken the fourth wall between IT and the enterprise.

  • Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Application Platform As a Service, Worldwide 24 March 2016 | ID:G00277028
    Gartner Reprint https://www.gartner.com/doc/reprints?id=1-321CNJJ&ct=160328&st=sb (http://www.gartner.com/home) LICENSED FOR DISTRIBUTION Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Application Platform as a Service, Worldwide 24 March 2016 | ID:G00277028 Analyst(s): Paul Vincent, Yefim V. Natis, Kimihiko Iijima, Anne Thomas, Rob Dunie, Mark Driver Summary Application platform technology in the cloud continues to be the center of growth as IT planners look to exploit cloud for the development and delivery of multichannel apps and services. We examine the leading enterprise vendors for these platforms. Market Definition/Description Platform as a service (PaaS) is defined as application infrastructure functionality enriched with cloud characteristics and offered as a service. Application platform as a service (aPaaS) is a PaaS offering that supports application development, deployment and execution in the cloud, encapsulating resources such as infrastructure and including services such as those for data management and user interfaces. An aPaaS offering that is designed to support the enterprise style of applications and application projects (high availability, disaster recovery, external service access, security and technical support) is enterprise aPaaS. This market includes only companies that provide public aPaaS offerings. Gartner identifies two classes of aPaaS: high-control, typically third-generation language (3GL)-based and used by IT departments for sophisticated applications such as microservice-based applications; and high-productivity, typically model-driven and used either by IT or citizen developers for standardized application patterns such as those focused on data collection and access. Vendors providing only aPaaS-enabling software without the associated cloud service — cloud-enabled application platforms — are not considered in this Magic Quadrant.
