Аннотация:
Green Software Engineering is an interdisciplinary field that focuses on designing, developing, deploying, and maintaining software systems in ways that minimize energy consumption and environmental impact. With the rapid growth of digital infrastructure, software has become a significant indirect contributor to global energy use and carbon emissions through data centers, networks, and end-user devices. This article examines the academic foundations and industry practices of Green Software Engineering, emphasizing energy efficiency, carbon awareness, and sustainability principles across the software life cycle. The study synthesizes findings from peer-reviewed research and industry frameworks to identify effective methodologies, measurable outcomes, and current challenges. The results highlight that integrating sustainability metrics into software architecture, development processes, and operational decisions can substantially reduce energy consumption and carbon footprints without compromising performance or reliability.
