Abstract

Many differentdomains such as engineering, education and health apply green development through sustainability concept.The aim is to ensure the product and services are still relevance and applicable for the next generation. Previously, they were three common pillars of sustainability elements which were economic, social, and environmental. The technical and individual elements were added later to evaluate the software system. Yet, effortsare made to achieve green development process by reducing wastes and to preserve the environment.Most studies targeted on greenness of software products and less consideration on green in software processes. In this study, focus is given to ensure and guarantee green in software process activities. This paper presents the background works on existing studies in green software process and related. Further, it presents the theoretical framework that is based on literature findings and will be the groundwork of this study. The theoretical frameworkdefined consists of software process, green context, and assessment method. The elements of sustainability and waste reduction will be identified further.

Summary

Introduction

Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) is a global development program that aims to provide well-being to the world community and preserve the environment (Wu et al, 2018). Software engineering is one of domain that leading to sustainable development mainly in software process. Sustainability is the capacity for a longer life of usage and provides greener characteristic inclusive. According to Dick and Naumann (2010), Kern et al (2013), green software engineering goals are to minimize the negative effect on the environment and produce sustainable software products. Literature study discovers that lack of studies on green software even though software has the impact indirectly to the greenness and sustainability environment (Ibrahim et al, 2020). This paper is organised as follows: Section II presents materials and methods which consist of the background of software process, green software process model and sustainability context.
