CS 6204: Sustainable Computing
Dr. Kirk Cameron

Course Description

Sustainable Computing is the notion of designing computer systems and
applications for efficient use of power and energy. In this course, we
will explore the origins of Green/Sustainable Computing and the extant
literature on the topic as well as the recent design and deployment of a
"Green" Supercomputer at Virginia Tech. Students will study and learn
to critique papers in the literature. Students will also be expected
to complete a research project related to Sustainable Computing. It is
recommended that students have had at least one course that covers the
major topics of computer architecture and operating systems.
