CIT 340 - Green Computing

Institution:

Tiffin University

Subject:

Computer and Information Technology

Description:

Students in this course will be introduced to Green Computing (aka, sustainable computing) which is broadly defined as the problem of reducing the overall carbon footprint (emissions) of computing and communication infrastructure by using energy-efficient design and operations. Technical issues in high-performance green computing that span the spectrum from green infrastructure (energy-efficient buildings, intelligent cooling systems, green/renewable power sources) to green hardware (multi-core computing systems, energy-efficient server design, energy-efficient solid-state storage) to green software and applications (parallelizing computational science algorithms to run or modern energy-efficient multi-core clusters) will be examined.
