Computers and information technology are proving themselves as energy-hungry partners in a society with carbon emission issues to be resolved. Video coding is a very computation-intensive, energy-demanding task. We approach green computing applied to video by setting task parameters in order to minimize energy consumption for a given performance. We use training and real energy measurements. We applied the concept to H.264/AVC video coding, showing that one can substantially reduce energy consumption at the expense of a small rate-distortion (RD) performance penalty. In essence, we do the same task, using exactly the same resources (hw + sw), but with substantial energy savings. We used a state-of-the-art implementation, x264, for tests and show RD results for comparisons and discussions.
