1. Introduction
Changes in the environment due to human activities have been a major concern for mankind since the industrial revolution. Global warming and climate change along with the depletion of vital earth resources have become issues that are being paid more and more attention as the effect of them become visible in our daily lives. Technologies that try to minimize their effects on the environment are called green technologies and they have become quintessential in the modern world. Green computing is concerned with trying to minimize the environmental effort of the IT business on the environment.
With the rapid development and growth of the internet
