A Review: A Step toward Green Computing

Abstract

Today computational power grows rapidly therefore we have ‘Cloud computing’ concept to fulfill this need. But, in Cloud computing high performance cloud servers are used for advance computational needs. Due to these computational unit executions, a large amount of power consumed, on the other hand the effect is that some harmful gases are also released in a similar amount of energy. Green Computing is the concept which is trying to confine this procedure by inventing new methods that would work efficiently while consuming less energy and making less population. This paper focuses on Green computing techniques, in order to achieve low power consumptions. Keywords: Green computing, Energy cost, Data Center, Virtualization.
