Abstract

Green computing is usually defined as the eco-friendly practice of undertaking Computing resources in a productive manner rather than giving any concern about maintaining or increasing overall production. Nowadays, the climatic behavior is getting unpredictable with each passing year. Recently, many organizations are focusing on achieving the goal of uprooting the problem of hazardous human-induced climatic change. The introduction of various laws and policies related to environmental norms enforces the manufacturers of various IT equipment to fulfill the energy demands. Thus, green computing is an approach toward regulating and minimizing the harmful effect of various computing resources on the environment. This paper is a survey of important literature concerned with the green computing field which climaxes the need for green computing in creating an eco-friendly environment.
