Presentation Transcript

  1. ICTSUS6233A Integrate sustainability in ICT planning and design projects • analyse energy audit data on enterprise resource consumption • plan and integrate sustainability into ICT projects by devising strategies to conserve resources • develop and monitor policies for review and improvements, benchmarking against industry best practice and attempting new approaches continuously over time.

  2. Sustainability and IT issues • How to produce an energy audit • Choosing energy efficient hardware • Using power management software • Selecting energy efficient architecture – with longer life cycle, better utility • Using renewable energy • Reducing e-waste • Pilot projects

  3. How to produce an energy audit

  4. Choosing energy efficient hardware

  5. Using power management software

  6. Selecting energy efficient architecture – with longer life cycle, better utility

  7. Using renewable energy

  8. Reducing e-waste … solutions that are enabled by ICT for improving the sustainability in other processes, leveraging innovation and transparency and improving the efficiency of many sectors.

  9. Pilot project Digital Droverfor a digital landscape

  10. Digital Droverfor a digital landscape - innovative application of technology to create sustainable computer classrooms

  11. Sustainability challenge Prototype and Mobile Demonstration Systems • “thin client” networks • cloud computing • low powered computing • smart grid advanced control • deep-cycle AGM batteries • solar generation • wind generation

  12. Sustainability and IT issues • How to produce an energy audit • Choosing energy efficient hardware • Using power management software • Selecting energy efficient architecture – with longer life cycle, better utility • Using renewable energy • Reducing e-waste • Pilot projects

  13. Process • To understand the reasons why are we considering Green IT • To carefully assess the prototype and associated issues – not rushing into a solution before the problems are understood. • To get engagement from key stakeholders

  14. Australia is more vulnerable to climate change than most other OECD nations…

  15. ...and our emissions are projected to rise

  16. Process Blacktown students assess and optimise the prototype - Android thin client

  17. Mobile Demonstration Systems Team The prototype is a recycled drovers van and embodies the concepts of adapting to change and clever use of existing infrastructure to create a roving classroom.

  18. Process • To manage project scope with pilot projects and building on experience • To consider timing of the different prototype systems to facilitate integration • To consider the use of open source alternative software for global application

  19. Reprogramming the Chinese thin client

  20. Low Powered Computing Projects • Dual core atom processor server • Solid state hard drives • Green power supply units • Linux Thin Clients • Android Thin Clients Thin Client Solid State Drive Desktop with Atom Processor Mainboard

  21. Achievements • 3 highly energy efficient servers using a variety of hardware platforms running Edubuntu with Thin Clients • A range of thin client technology some donated and some purchased • Testing and evaluation of switches and Ethernet cables • Feasibility studies into appropriate technology • Engagement with industry partners

  22. Achievements 3 highly energy efficient servers using a variety of hardware platforms running Edubuntu with Thin Clients

  23. Installing the prototype systems

  24. Achievements Adapted Thin Client Technology The Chinese AND1 thin client uses Dual core 1GHz Cortex A8 CPU, 512M bytes DDR2 400, 512M bytes Nand Flash, embedded Android system – adapted and reprogrammed to work in the context of a sustainable computer classroom

  25. Achievements Partners A range of thin client technology some donated and some purchased Forests NSW - 5 Wyse Clients Tirrintippin 5 - Wyse Clients YouWei Technology Co., Ltd (China) - Various low powered clients Y220, Y210, Y100, AND1

  26. Achievements Testing and evaluation of switches and cables for the sustainable computer classroom: Developed a 24 Port Gigabit Switch with Cat6 Ethernet solution offering optimum performance for the prototype system architecture

  27. Achievements Engagement with industry partners From a global perspective the market for sustainable computer classrooms is enormous; from this perspective opportunities exist to create new futures and partnerships from the principles embodied in the prototype. Partners Schneider-electric Forests NSW YW Technology (China) Tirrintippin

  28. Future projects under planning and development include: Feasibility studies into appropriate technology

  29. Questions? • Opportunities ? • ICT infrastructure • Enablers in education, business & administration • Pilot projects • Grants & concessions • Can we help?
