  1. INTRODUCTION

    The term "Green Computing" is also termed as energy- efficient computing or sustainable computing; it is the practice of creating, using, and disposing of computing systems and technology in an environmentally responsible way. It entails lowering the environmental harm caused by computing operations, such as energy usage, electronic waste, and resource efficiency. The increased use of mobile devices, such as smartphones, Laptops, and Internet of Things devices, as well as the quick expansion in their quantity demand for wireless access, has raised serious concerns about these networks energy consumption and environmental impact.

    Wireless and mobile networks serve a vital role in providing communication, transfer of data, and access to the data. However, the growth in use of energy triggered on by these networks creates problems for the environment, such as higher greenhouse gas emissions such as carbon dioxide and depletion of resource. In order to overcome these difficulties, green computing in mobile and wireless networks incorporates techniques and innovations that optimize energy effectiveness, lessen carbon footprint, and support sustainability. The goal of green computing in the context of mobile and wireless networks is to reduce energy usage without affecting user experience, performance of network, or quality of service. This includes a number of procedures, including developing of energy-conscious protocols and algorithms, the design of hardware components, improving the performance of network infrastructure, and the incorporation of renewable energy sources. Mobile and wireless networks may become

    more environmentally friendly, economically viable, and socially responsible by using green computing concepts.

    Future ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) are going to be more dependent on energy efficiency as the price and supply of energy keep on increasing. Energy- efficient ways that decrease the overall energy consumption of data processing, storage, and transmission are required due to the expanding use of ICT, rising energy prices, and the need to minimize emissions of greenhouse gases. The earliest and most compelling proof demonstrates that CO2 and other emissions are seriously harming the ecosystem and the world's climate. Therefore, protecting our precious planet is the highest priority and most significant for green computing technologist.

    Likewise, conservation of energy/ energy-saving techniques in wireless and mobile networks can offer economic advantages. Network providers and customers may save money by lowering energy costs and prolonging the battery life of mobile devices by optimizing energy use. The whole sustainability and duration of the mobile and wireless communication ecosystem may be enhanced via energy efficiency. In order to achieve the intended outcomes in green computing in mobile and wireless networks, experts are actively analyzing multiple domains and making notable efforts. Some of the primary areas of attention are:
