DESCRIPTION:Green and sustainable software engineering is a rising field th
 at aims at adopting energy-efficient software and hardware in an environme
 ntally friendly manner with less negative impacts and carbon footprint. Th
 is topic is very important now that there is a list of the top 500 green s
 upercomputers in the world\, updated semi-annually\, to promote the use of
  them. In a broader sense\, green computing refers to the methods of creat
 ing\, utilizing\, and disposing of computing resources in an eco-friendly 
 manner that preserves overall computing functionality. This encompasses mi
 nimizing the use of harmful substances\, optimizing product performance th
 roughout its lifespan while minimizing its energy usage\, and ensuring tha
 t the used resources are either reusable\, recyclable\, or biodegradable t
 o reduce their environmental impact.\n\nThe talk will cover the recent eff
 orts and advances in green computing and sustainable software engineering.
  Some of the topics to be covered are sustainable big data centers and clo
 ud computing\, the carbon footprint of a computer program and different te
 chniques and methods for measuring it\, introduction to state-of-the-art n
 ew emerging devices that promote high sustainability\, reusability\, and l
 ow-power\, such as Neuromorphic computers and AI chips. In addition\, the 
 speaker will share their experience about introducing these topics to unde
 rgraduate senior students and why it’s important to promote this type of
  education in other schools.\n\nSpeaker(s): Amr Mahmoud\n\nRoom: 1235\, Bl

X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>Green and sustainable software engineering
  is a rising field that aims at adopting energy-efficient software and har
 dware in an environmentally friendly manner with less negative impacts and
  carbon footprint. This topic is very important now that there is a list o
 f the top 500 green supercomputers in the world\, updated semi-annually\, 
 to promote the use of them. In a broader sense\, green computing refers to
  the methods of creating\, utilizing\, and disposing of computing resource
 s in an eco-friendly manner that preserves overall computing functionality
 . This encompasses minimizing the use of harmful substances\, optimizing p
 roduct performance throughout its lifespan while minimizing its energy usa
 ge\, and ensuring that the used resources are either reusable\, recyclable
 \, or biodegradable to reduce their environmental impact.</p>\n<p>The talk
  will cover the recent efforts and advances in green computing and sustain
 able software engineering. Some of the topics to be covered are sustainabl
 e big data centers and cloud computing\, the carbon footprint of a compute
 r program and different techniques and methods for measuring it\, introduc
 tion to state-of-the-art new emerging devices that promote high sustainabi
 lity\, reusability\, and low-power\, such as Neuromorphic computers and AI
  chips. In addition\, the speaker will share their experience about introd
 ucing these topics to undergraduate senior students and why it&rsquo\;s im
 portant to promote this type of education in other schools.</p>
