Abstract

Abstract The application software design has a major impact on the energy efficiency of a computing system. But research on the subject is still in its infancy. What is the energy efficiency of software? How can it be measured? What are guidelines for the development of energy efficient software? In this paper, we set out to find an answer to these questions and motivate the need for a dedicated research area for application software energy efficiency. We place this subject in the context of other initiatives for green and sustainable computing and clarify central concepts. Furthermore we give an overview of different existing approaches for both measuring and optimization of software energy efficiency.
