Development of Application-Specific Impact Specifications and GreenSLAs for Sustainable Systems

This paper presents a framework for application-specific impact specifications and green service level agreements (GreenSLAs) aimed at promoting sustainability in software applications. By identifying and measuring the environmental impacts of various applications, we can create targeted specifications that support greener computing practices. The authors, Colin Atkinson and Thomas Schulze from the University of Mannheim, emphasize the importance of integrating sustainability into software design to enhance overall system efficiency and reduce ecological footprints.

  1. Towards Application-Specific Impact Specifications and GreenSLAs

  2. Conclusion MOTIVATION Towards Green Specifications The energy needs of the ICT industry are predicted to rise enormously Current strategies for addressing this mainly focus on enhancing efficiency But this alone will not have the desired impact if users are not made aware of the impact of their consumption choices Therefore, an approach that fosters more responsible usage behaviour is required A key prerequisite is to clearly specify what services a customer receives for what cost (ecologically and financially) Showcase Specification Requirement Estimation Service Provider User SLA GREENS 2013 San Francisco, USA 20.05.2013

  5. Conclusion Application specific impact specifications raise the level of awareness of the user for eco-cost and enables them to make more responsible choices In addition it enables data centres to further enhance their optimization strategies based on acceptable qualities of services Proposed question to the workshop for further discussion: “What metrics are useful for expressing eco-efficiency to the user and to the software developer” Towards Green Specifications Showcase MOTIVATION GREENS 2013 San Francisco, USA 20.05.2013
