    BEST: International Journal of Management, Information Technology and Engineering (BEST: IJMITE) Vol. 1, Issue 1, Oct 2013, 23-28 © BEST Journals GREEN COMPUTING A MODERN APPROACHES TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY V. NAGARAJU Faculty Member, Department of M.C.A, Andhra University Campus, Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh, India ABSTRACT Green computing is the practice of using computing resources efficiently. Modern IT relies upon a complicated mix of people, networks, and hardware, as such a green computing initiative must be systematic in nature, and address increasingly sophisticated problems. Green computing is the utmost requirement to protect environment and save energy along with operational expenses in today’s increasingly competitive world. Green technology focuses on reducing the environmental impact of industrial processes and innovative technologies caused by the Earth’s growing population. It has taken upon itself the goal to provide society’s needs in ways that do not damage the natural resources. This means creating fully recyclable products, reducing pollution, proposing alternative technologies in various fields, and creating a center of economic activity around technologies that benefit the environment. The huge amount of computing manufactured worldwide has a direct impact on environment issues, and scientists are conducting numerous studies in order to reduce the negative impact of computing technology on our natural resources. A central point of research is testing and applying alternative nonhazardous materials in the products’ manufacturing process. KEYWORDS: Proposing Alternative Technologies in Various Fields, "Green Computing", Maximize Energy Efficiency during the Product's Lifetime INTRODUCTION Overview of Green Computing In 1992, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency launched Energy Star, a voluntary labeling program which is designed to promote and recognize energy-efficiency in monitors, climate control equipment, and other technologies.

  • 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.

    TECHNOLOGY AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BCD 216 LECTURE 12 DETERMINING A SUSTAINABLE APPROACH (CONT’D) 10) Health care According to the Global Health Council, rather than the use of professionally schooled doctors, the training of villagers to remedy most maladies in towns in the developing world is most appropriate. Trained villagers are able to eliminate 80% of the health problems. Small (low-cost) hospitals - based on the model of the Jamkhed hospital – can remedy another 15%, while only 5% will need to go to a larger (more expensive) hospital.Before being able to determine the cause of the disease or malady, accurate diagnosis is required. This may be done manually (through observation, inquiries) and by specialised tools.Herbalist medicines(e.g. tinctures, tisanes, decoctions) are appropriate medicines, as they can be freely made at home and are almost as effective as their chemical counterparts. A previous program that made use of herbal medicine was the Barefoot doctor program. A phase-change incubator, developed in the late 1990s, is a low cost way for health workers to incubate microbial samples.Birth control is also seen as an appropriate technology, especially now, because of increasing population numbers (overpopulating certain areas), increasing food prices and poverty. It has been proposed to a certain degree by PATH (program for appropriate technology in health).Jaipur leg was developed by Dr. P. K. Sethi and Masterji Ram Chander in 1968 as an inexpensive prosthetic leg for victims of landmine explosions.The Leveraged Freedom Chair is a low-cost wheelchair designed specifically for rough terrain,Natural cleaning products can be used for personal hygiene and cleaning of clothing and eating utensils; in order to decrease illnesses/maladies (as they eliminate a great amount of pathogens).
