绿色计算的重定义与若干探讨

计算机系统的环境可分为人文环境和自然环境两个部分.随着全球计算机系统大量而广泛的使用,对环境日益产生了一些负面影响.绿色计算(green computing)是一种以环境为中心的计算模式,通过努力消除计算机系统的环境不友好方面,使得计算机系统、人、社会与自然环境更加和谐,实现节能、环保和节约的目标.通过与绿色化学的比较研究,作者采取了一种更加统一和抽象的方式定义绿色计算的概念,并探讨了其主要研究内容,从而明确了绿色计算的界限和范围,理顺了相关领域的研究任务和关系.然后,提出了绿色汁算的一些基本思路和一般性方法,为下一步研究各种条件下绿色计算的具体模型、方法与工具打下了必要的基础.

The Redefinition and Some Discussion of Green Computing

The environment of computer systems can be divided into two parts,humanities environment and natural environment.Along with fl large number of computer systems have been widely used around the world,they gradually produce some negative effects to environment.As a kind of computing mode centered on the environment,by eliminating the environment-unfriendly aspects of computer systems,Green Computing can enable computer systems,people,society and natural environment in better harmony,and reach the goals of energy-saving,environmentprotection and cost-saving.Compared with the research of Green Chemistry,the authors use a more universal and abstract way to redefine Green Computing,and discuss its main research contents,so that the limitation and scope of Green Computing can be ascertained,and the research tasks and relation between the related research fields can be clarified.Then,some basic ideas and general methods of Green Computing are proposed,which are an important fundament to explore some specific models,methods and tools of Green Computing under the various kinds of conditions in the next step.
