术语绿色计算已经有效地成为低功率/能量计算的同义词。然而，计算是真正可持续的，系统生命周期的所有阶段都必须考虑。与已经应用于解决使用阶段能耗问题的相当大的努力（从电池供电的嵌入式系统到数据中心服务器）相比，对半导体制造的相当大的能耗和环境影响的认识或关注有限。目前的研究表明，制造是这些系统在其整个生命周期中所利用的能量的重要因素。技术规模化的趋势加上开发用于集成新兴技术的混合制造解决方案，虽然有利于使用阶段的功耗，但加剧了制造对环境的影响。因此，可持续性设计是未来十年必须解决的重大挑战。
The term green computing has become effectively synonymous with low-power/energy computing. However, for computing to be truly sustainable, all phases of the system life-cycle must be considered. In contrast to the considerable effort that has been applied to address the use-phase energy consumption issue - ranging from battery powered embedded systems to data center servers - there is limited awareness or attention to the considerable energy consumption and environmental impacts from semiconductor fabrication. Current research indicates that fabrication is responsible for a significant factor of the energy utilized by these systems throughout their life-cycle. The trends of technology scaling coupled with developing hybrid fabrication solutions for integration of emerging technologies, while beneficial for use-phase power consumption, exacerbate these increasing environmental impacts from fabrication. Thus, design for sustainability is a grand challenge that must be addressed over the next decade.
