  • Abstract
    Most of the modern high-performance computing systems have emerged as the significant energy consumption issues. The simple type of thin client only has minimum power consumption, less movable parts and fewer memories for storage. So, using the computers with the least power consumption becomes significant trend. The measurement of electricity usage of normal thin client is logically guessed and theoretically measured. The Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is used to configure the thin client with the dependent server. The watts usage of the thin client and server are presented and it is very helpful for computer universities of developing countries. The least power consumption of the processors leads to the cleanest environment for future users. Moreover, the configuration cost for thin client is absolutely zero illustrated in the paper as it is based on obsolete PCs. The green environment has been established with the help of thin technology for computer universities.
