Abstract :
Green computing has been an active research area which studies an efficient use of computing resources. It is a growing import subject that creates an urgent need to train next generation computer scientists or practitioners to think “green.” However, green computing has not yet been well taught in computer science (CS) or computer engineering programs (CE) programs, partly due to the lack of rooms to add a new course to those programs. Presented in this paper is an effort to reform core concepts of CS/CE to inculcate green computing in subjects such as algorithms, and operating systems.
