I am doing research on how to measure the energy consumption and thus carbon emission of software.
The toolchain will be open-source and the data free use. Currently it is only a prototype and there are many open research questions to be solved.
If any of you is interested in this topic or would like to connect please feel free to contact me.
Currently we are a team of two and I also have backed the research through my own company and can supply compensation for the open source work.
Would love to find like minded people in this domain.

- ognarb 5y agoDo you know about https://eco.kde.org https://eco.kde.org, it's a project under the kde umbrella (but not only for kde) that is sponsored by the German government with the goal of both doing measurements and defining how a eco friendly software should work. Okular was recently awarded the blue angel certification: https://eco.kde.org/blog/2022-03-16-press-release-okular-blue-angel/ https://eco.kde.org/blog/2022-03-16-press-release-okular-blu...
- ArneTR 5y agoI am aware of the label and also that Okular got the first certification in Germany. However I believe that the certification in its current form has limited value. But we thrive to integrate it into our toolchain. Have you been part of the team that went through the certification process? I would love to get in touch and ask some questions :)
- ognarb 4y agoI'm not part of the team did the certification process (just know some of them as I'm involved with plasma mobile and contribute occasionally to Okular), if you want to get in touch with them better ask them in the mailing list or matrix channel linked in https://eco.kde.org/ https://eco.kde.org/ ;)
