SUMMARY:Carbon-Neutrality, Sustainability, and HPC
DESCRIPTION:Daniel Reed (University of Utah), Andrew Chien (University of 
 Chicago), Robert Bunger (Schneider Electric), Genna Waldvogel (Los Alamos 
 National Laboratory (LANL)), Nicolas Dubé (Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE
 )), and Esa Heiskanen (Finnish IT Center for Science)\n\nWhat does it mean
  for computer systems to be sustainable?  We have made significant improve
 ments to operational efficiency in HPC systems.  We now need to consider a
  broader scope of environmental impacts across the life cycle of our syste
 ms.  This includes how they are designed and manufactured, how they are tr
 ansported, how they are operated and how we are tearing them down, re-usin
 g and recycling them after they are no longer useful.  These consideration
 s may not be obvious.  For example,  manufacturing costs dominate the life
  cycle carbon footprint of systems and that trend is on the rise.  How can
  we start to consider the carbon footprint across the end to end life cycl
 e of our systems?  We have a lot of capabilities to understand the perform
 ance, power and energy of our systems, but the same cannot be said for car
 bon footprint.  Should carbon footprint be a first order optimization targ
 et?\n\nTag: Energy Efficiency, Green Computing, Sustainability\n\nRegistra
