Mid-Term Project: Green Computing Janiqua Thompson Digital World Mid-Term Project Green Computing In chapter one‚ it talks about Green computing practice. Green Computing is basically trying to save energy by reducing electricity and environmental waste. I can apply this to how I use my computing practices by listing ways that I can lessen my power usage at home doing my schooling and for people at work. With this I will acknowledge how often I use a printer to print documents as such. I will

History of computing hardware The history of computing hardware is the record of the constant drive to make computer hardware faster‚ cheaper‚ and store more data. Before the development of the general-purpose computer‚ most calculations were done by humans. Tools to help humans calculate were then called "calculating machines"‚ by proprietary names‚ or even as they are now‚ calculators. It was those humans who used the machines who were then called computers; there are pictures of enormous rooms
