Sustainable VLSI Design: Green Electronics for Energy Conscious Systems

Abstract

Years have passed by and we have gone into an age of technology where electronic devices are being integrated in our daily lives. Smartphones to smart homes, these gadgets traverse the globe and have revolutionized the way we interact with each other as well as work and move in our lives. However, there comes a very large environmental cost to that boom. Because of the growing of electronic devices, energy consumption and electronic waste is a problem that we have no more to be without dealing with with something you cannot get rid of.In view of an atmosphere full of issues in a crowd, the very large scale integration (VLSI) design is moved towards green produce. This shift is not a by product of a trend but a necessity as electronics industry finally realises its environmental impact. The state of the art is research and development of the sustainable VLSI design — the energy efficient and environmental friendly electronic systems.Finally, in this article, the world of sustainable VLSI design is explored as it studies a specific aspect of green electronics and its role in shaping the path of energy conscious systems. We will take a look at the state of the art advancements and improvements, the challenges and possible solutions to the aforementioned dilemma of figuring out the correct balance of the advancement of this very fast moving industry and environmental stewardship.
