GCFI will focus on use cases that are currently unmet by commercial solutions. IMDA will call for proposals this year to invite researchers and industry players to co-develop low-carbon digital solutions.
The Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) has launched two green computing initiatives that aim to promote sustainable practices and efficient use of computing resources in the tech sector.
Firstly, IMDA’s Green Computing Funding Initiative (GCFI) will allocate $30 million to encourage research around optimising software design and function for energy efficiency. It enables researchers from Institutes of Higher Learning to collaborate with the industry to solve problems related to green computing.
