摘要：Cloud Computing (CC) has been recognized and gained significant importance as an approach that can be used to save the energy of resources being used by organizations. CC is crucial in virtualization; that is helpful to reduce the use of the number of power consuming servers. Virtualization itself is being green as it is energy saving, cost effective and resource saving. For the use of resources, data centre, hardware, application platforms and application, there is a need to pay much more attention on energy consumption. The aim of this work is to highlight different approaches and guidelines for energy efficient software development throughout all the phases of Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Energy awareness should be introduced as early as possible to reduce the cost of energy consumption in later developments. The increasing usability of information, communication, application developments and the highly complicated computations there is a need to reduce energy consumption of computation, storage and communication. In this paper, CC and green computing are combined and a software development structure in an energy efficient green cloud computing has been proposed by dividing the structure into two parts, that is; the software part and the cloud deployment setup. Finally, approaches in Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) stages related to energy efficient issue are recognized and make helpful to develop more friendly platforms for the software applications in a cloud deployment setup.
