Abstract :
With the development of social and the process of informatization, various types of computer systems have been widely used. However, the environmental impact of computer systems is also becoming increasingly prominent. Proposal of the concept of Green Computing is in order to save energy, improve efficiency, and achieve environmental protection and energy saving. This paper proposed the concept of Green Computing and Green Computing system based on reviewing the origin of the Green Computing. Then, the principles of Green Computing evaluation were analyzed and the index system of Green Computing systems evaluation was established. In the subsequent sections, Green Computing system evaluation process was proposed and the specific evaluation methods using Fuzzy Synthetic Estimation with the practical examples validated were given.
