    Energy Efficiency in Cloud Software Architectures
    (Proceedings of the 27th Conference on Environmental Informatics - Informatics for Environmental Protection, Sustainable Development and Risk Management, 2013) Procaccianti, Giuseppe; Bevini, Stefano; Lago, Patricia
    Cloud-based software is often considered as providing a greener, more energy-efficient solution. At the same time, it introduces more complexity and demands for new investments in cloud services, technologies, and competencies for migration, maintenance, and evolution of the underlying software architectures. To understand better the implications of cloud software architectures on energy efficiency, in this paper we present the preliminary results of a systematic literature review that investigates what kind of software architectures for cloud service provisioning allow to achieve energy-efficient solutions.

    Four-Dimensional Sustainable E-Services
    (Proceedings of the 28th Conference on Environmental Informatics - Informatics for Environmental Protection, Sustainable Development and Risk Management, 2014) Razavian, Maryam; Procaccianti, Giuseppe; Tamburri, Damian Andrew
    E-services are not sustainable, unless specifically designed for sustainability along four dimensions (4D): economical, technical, environmental, and social. Designing 4D-sustainable eservices is very complex, mainly due to the many challenges in communicating and assessing sustainability. This paper proposes a conceptual model that identifies the core elements of 4Dsustainable e-services. Our goal is to enhance the shared understanding amongst sustainability stakeholders, while easing sustainability assessment and negotiation. We illustrate the value of the conceptual model using a real-life case study featuring an airport baggage handling system.

    The Green Practitioner: A Decision-Making Tool for Green ICT
    (EnviroInfo & ICT4S, Conference Proceedings, 2015) Lundfall, Karl; Grosso, Paola; Lago, Patricia; Procaccianti, Giuseppe
    The environmental impact of ICT represents an increasing concern for modern society. Despite that, we still witness a lack of awareness from the ICT industry regarding their carbon footprint. In particular, practitioners lack knowledge and tools to perform informed decision-making in the area of Green ICT. Moreover, best practices for Green ICT are usually conceived and applied in-house. This prevents them from being generalized and shared with the community. In this paper, we present a web-based tool that tackles both needs: on one hand, the tool enables practitioners (i.e. agents) to browse a number of Green ICT solutions and calculate their estimated impact if applied to their organization, through customized parameters. On the other hand, the tool also provides a creation interface for contributors who want to generalize and share their own Green ICT practices. In addition, we foresee that the data generated by the usage of the tool will provide useful insights and trends regarding the adoption of Green ICT and its effectiveness on reducing CO2 emissions.
