The field of sustainable computing is rapidly advancing, with a focus on reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions while maintaining technological progress. Researchers are exploring innovative solutions, including energy-efficient hardware, AI-optimized data centers, and circular e-waste systems. A key direction is the development of frameworks and tools to assess and optimize the sustainability of computing systems, such as microgrids and data centers. Another area of focus is the design of sustainable and secure hardware platforms, including hybrid architectures that combine the benefits of ASICs and FPGAs. Additionally, there is a growing recognition of the need to move beyond alternative designs and towards technologies that protect against the consequences of environmental damage, including resistance technologies and anti-surveillance technologies. Noteworthy papers include: ECOLogic, which presents a hybrid design paradigm for secure, updatable, and resource-aware computation, achieving a 99.7 percent reduction in deployment carbon footprint. Optimizing Microgrid Composition for Sustainable Data Centers, which introduces a novel optimization framework to assess the sizing and composition of microgrid components for sustainable data centers.
