A Manifesto for Energy-Aware Software

Abstract: ACCORDING TO RECENT estimates, computing and communications could account for 20% of energy usage globally by 2025. 1 This trend shows no sign of slowing. The annual growth in power consumption of Internet-connected devices is 20%. Data centers alone are now accounting for more than 3% of global emissions. Even if you are not worried about this trend on the mega scale, you are likely concerned with the power consumption of the devices in your pocket, on your wrist, and in your ears. Software, hardware, and net… Show more

“…Figure 5 shows an estimated growth in internet data traffic, power consumption & workload of data centers between 2015 to 2021. Internet traffic in 2015 stood at 100 exabyte per month (Eb/M) and it is projected to be reach 519 Eb/M at compound annual growth rate of 31.58% [98]. Increasing growth of internet traffic, computational requirement, data storage and communication networks have fueled emissions in the environment.…”

“…Meeting such diverse requirements has also resulted in increased ICT energy consumption. By 2025, the ICT industry itself could be responsible for 30% of power consumption globally, where data centers alone account for 3% of carbon emission [2]. In mobile networks, 80% of the total energy of cellular networks is consumed by base stations and has pivotal importance for energy efficiency improvements [3].…”

“…Ideally, the impact label of an offered service would be something as easy to communicate as the energy ranking of commercial devices, allowing for easy comparison between them by the users, and resulting in raising awareness across the board [10]. However, achieving this goal is far from trivial.…”
