ENSIMA: One Year Towards Green Simulation
The three-year ENSIMA project (energy-efficient simulation methods for application-oriented computing problems), part of the BMBF’s “Energy-efficient HPS (Green HPC)” program, was launched almost a year ago. The aim of this project is to use AI methods to improve the selection of design parameters in production processes and to accelerate simulation processes through approximate and heterogeneous computing. You can also read our blog post about IT Zauber, another project under this program.
IT-Zauber: Efficient Data Centres
The IT-Zauber project, funded by the BMBF as part of the nine joint research projects of the GreenHPC program, aims to improve the efficiency and sustainability of data centres through digital twins. These digital images enable a holistic view of data centres by encompassing the entire operation including the computer load as well as the power supply and cooling infrastructure.
Green Surfing on the World Wide Web
Google is probably the most popular search engine in the world.
Since 2004, the verb “to google” has even been in the German Duden dictionary. This is of course because Google is the big player in the search engine business. In 2022, Google became one of the most valuable companies in the world with a brand value of around 819.6 billion US dollars (source: statista.com).
But there are green alternatives that we can set up as our default search engine – after all, every query consumes electricity and increases our CO₂ footprint.
Green IT – Achieving Greater Sustainability in the Office
For a long time now, digitalization has reached all areas of our daily lives. Digital technologies play a central role in our everyday lives and are constantly evolving at a rapid pace. The development of increasingly innovative technologies is opening up completely new opportunities and possibilities from a technical, economic and social point of view. But digitization is not all positive. All involved stakeholders should always remain aware of the impact it has on the environment and society. Read the rest of this entry »
