Software Development Life Cycle for Environmental Sustainability[ ]


The Software Industry is unequivocally the backbone of today’s digital society. Since the late 90s, the software industry has generated enormous amounts of wealth. The benefits of technology are seen daily. However, this industry also plays a huge part in the ever-increasing carbon footprint as its development is highly energy-intensive. For instance, the carbon footprint of a single neural network model during training can emit as much as five cars’ carbon footprint in its lifetime. Also, there is an exponential increase in the computational power required to run AI models. The industry has to focus on the environmental sustainability of software as an integral part. Along with traditional parameters like scalability and security, the software’s energy efficiency must also be judged in performance reviews and the inclusion of green practices and targets. Computer hardware, starting from manufacturing to its disposal, leads to pollution of air, water and soil.
