b. Web extensions that permit more flexibility and control
c. Web extensions that monitor energy consumption of a website
d. All of the above
ANSWER: All of the above
A new, open source computer programming framework making the web significantly more energy efficient permits people to save more battery power while mobile browsing
- Scientists have developed the GreenWeb a set of web programming language extensions enabling web developers to exert flexibility over energy efficiency and energy consumption of the website
- As user awareness is constantly increasing, web developers need to be aware of energy efficiency
- Current web language standards do not provide developers control over device energy use
- Researchers integrated GreenWeb into Google Chrome and reported energy savings of 30 to 66 percent over the default mode of Android.
- Mobile device users spend 2/3rd of their time browsing the web. Amount of energy saving could lead to 20 to 40 percent battery life extension.
