SUSTAINABLE COMPUTING LAB

The Sustainable Computing Lab aims at setting new standards in research, education, and practice to address ethical issues in computing. We are creating a lab with scientists from around the world working in a truly interdisciplinary way. Computer scientists should work with cognitive scientists, economists, managers, social scientists, lawyers, humanity scholars and philosophers on how to create an IT infrastructure and IT innovation that is sustainable, ethical, and trustworthy. To pass on the knowledge created, the Sustainable Computing Lab is heavily involved in academic and public dissemination, standardisation efforts, and the organisation of events. Besides its academic collaboration with scientific institutions, the lab co-operates with recognised NGOs to promote the work of activists. A primary goal of the lab is to promote open, free, private, secure, and sustainable technologies. For this reason, the lab engages in active co-operation with NGOs that pursue the same goals.....
