Information Foundations and Green Computing Integration: Way and Methods- A Study
Subscribe/Renew Journal
Information foundations are the most important and valuable feature in the field of information science which are mainly dedicated to several information activities ranging from collection, selection, organisation, processing, management, and dissemination of information to several clients and users directly or indirectly. Information science and documentation are main aim for information foundations of all types. Information foundations such as information centre, data centre, use so many electronic products which release many harmful chemicals and products which are against environment and human being. Hence possibilities of using alternative technologies may reduce such problem in many ways as far as better and sophisticated environment is concerned. This paper talks about information foundations, including its types and features and ways to integrate computing and allied technologies to promote such services.
