The Group 2 already reported their Presentation 2 about Tile App last December 15, 2014. They reported their Presentation 1 last January 7, 2015. So this blog is all about the Group 2’s Presentation 1 which is the Green Computing.

Green Computing is the study and practice of environmentally sustainable computing or IT. -Wikipedia

Green Computing is also called Green Technology. It 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). -TechTarget: Search Data Center

I cannot remember every detail about the reporting they had. So, what I will be sharing here are the things I have noted when they had their reporting. This is just a few so maybe I’ll have to research on the Internet for more infos.

They talked about ways for Green Computing. One of those is the Power Management which is a conservation of power. Another way is the Server Virtualization which is known as VPS and it is used to split server. The advantage of it is it reduces the number of servers. The disadvantage is the implementation can be a major hurdle. “Hurdle is an obstacle or difficulty.” -Google. The other ways are the Efficient Recycling or E-waste and Telecommuting.

The reporters were too fast so I had a hard time copying for notes. So if you want to know more about Green Computing, I have found a blog that talks about it. Just click this.
