Mission Possible: Becoming Green and Sustainable : An empirical study on Green IT Adoption and underlying factors influencing itNazari, Gholamreza, Karim, Hooman January 2011 (has links)
This study aims to investigate the main areas of Green IT and to determine which areas of Green IT have been widely adopted and implemented in our case studies. The purpose of the proposed study is also to identify, describe and analyze underlying factors that are perceived to be important to the adoption and implementation of Green IT. Finally, this research attempts to examine which factors are more important in our two case studies, Västerås City Stad and Mälardalen University.

A green approach towards systems development methodologies / Neill Christopher BraybrookeBraybrooke, Neill Christopher January 2013 (has links)
The aim of this study was to determine a Green approach towards systems development
methodologies and to investigate influences that affect the adoption of Green Information
Technologies and Green Information Systems in South Africa. A literature review was
done in order to determine which empirical is required to achieve the research objectives.
The positivistic paradigm was found to be the most suited paradigm for this study. A
survey was used as the research method and conducted in South Africa. The data was
collected using a questionnaire, after determining that it was the most suited data
collection method. The questionnaire was validated using structural equation modelling in
order to determine if the data that was collected is valid. The valid data was then
evaluated using different statistical methods, such as correlations, t-test, ANOVA tests
and Cross-Tabs.
The study revealed that the different characteristics of organisations can influence
different aspects, such factors that inhibit or motivate the adoption of Green IT and Green
IS. Interestingly, characteristics of individuals had no impact. It was also revealed that
organisational culture and national culture had an impact on factors that motivate the
adoption of Green IT initiatives. / MSc (Computer Science), North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2014

Previous issue date: 2009-08-07 / This dissertation aims to describe the practices of Information Technology Green contributing to sustainable development, in computers and textile industries in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. The goal is to understand the importance and contribution of IT Green for sustainable development. The research methodology used involved a survey of the theoretical approach prepared, involving two case studies in industries of Rio Grande do Norte. The analysis was supported by an analysis of content, which allowed the understanding of the phenomenon of the Information Technology Green sustainable development in the case studies. In conclusion, is that the Green Information Technology contributes to sustainable development, even so through incipient aspects that highlight the competitive business with a focus on cost reduction, and efforts in sustainable practices / A presente disserta??o visa descrever as pr?ticas da Tecnologia da Informa??o Verde que contribuem para o desenvolvimento sustent?vel, em ind?strias de computadores e t?xtil no Estado do Rio Grande do Norte. O objetivo ? compreender a import?ncia e a contribui??o da TI Verde para o desenvolvimento sustent?vel. A metodologia da pesquisa utilizada envolveu um levantamento te?rico da abordagem disposta, envolvendo dois estudos de casos em ind?strias do Rio Grande do Norte. A an?lise dos resultados foi amparada por uma an?lise de conte?do, o que viabilizou a compreens?o do fen?meno da Tecnologia da Informa??o Verde para o desenvolvimento sustent?vel nos estudos de casos. Como conclus?o, tem-se que a Tecnologia da Informa??o Verde contribui para o desenvolvimento sustent?vel, ainda que de maneira incipiente atrav?s de aspectos que evidenciam a competitividade empresarial com foco na redu??o de custos, e esfor?os nas pr?ticas sustent?veis

Investigating the antecedents to teaching green information technology (Green IT) : a survey of student teachers in SwazilandDlamini, Ricky Nhlanhla 09 1900 (has links)
Summary in English, Afrikaans and Zulu / The natural environment is important for human existence and the ubiquity of Information Technology (IT) has negatively impacted on the natural environment. Green IT offers to address these negative effects. However, since Green IT practices are often not common knowledge, it is vital that they are taught to others. Teachers typically have the skills and opportunities to teach many people. The research problem was the lack of research focusing on the teaching of Green IT in the context of the urgent need for it and teachers’ limited knowledge and competencies relating to Green IT. The study employed a survey research strategy, involving exploratory factor analysis, ANOVA and structural equation modeling (SEM). The main findings indicate that allocating time and resources to improve student teachers’ level of awareness, perceived behavioural control and person-related beliefs would positively influence their intention to teach Green IT, and, in turn, their Green IT teaching. / Die natuurlike omgewing, wat so noodsaaklik is vir menslike voortbestaan, word negatief beïnvloed deur die alomteenwoordigheid van inligtingstegnologie. Groen IT-praktyke kan gebruik word om sodanige negatiewe effekte in te perk, maar aangesien die nodige kennis nie alombekend is nie, moet dit aan ander oorgedra word. Onderwysers het beide die vaardighede en die geleenthede om inligting aan groot groepe mense oor te dra. In dié geval was die navorsingsprobleem ‘n gebrek aan studies wat fokus op die dringende noodsaaklikheid van Groen IT-onderrig, asook onderwysers se beperkte verwante kennis en vaardighede. ‘n Opname is gebruik as navorsingstrategie, met eksploratiewe faktorontleding, variansie-ontleding (ANOVA) en strukturele vergelykingsmodellering (SVM). Ingevolge die hoofbevindinge sal die beskikbaarmaak van tyd en hulpbronne leerlingonderwysers se bewuswordingsvlakke verbeter, sowel as hul waarneembare gedragswetenskaplike beheer en hul persoonsverwante beskouinge, en ‘n positiewe uitwerking hê op hul voorneme om Groen IT te onderrig, wat weer op sy beurt hul Groen IT-onderrig sal bevoordeel. / Imvelo yemvelo ibalulekile ekubeni khona komuntu nokutholakala kobuchwepheshe bezokwazisa kuye kwaba nomthelela omubi emvelweni yemvelo.
