Abstract

Techniques and solutions are provided for increasing the energy efficiency of computing code. Many computing operations can be implemented in a number of different ways. While the end result of each implementation may be the same, the energy efficiency of the implementations can vary dramatically. Disclosed techniques provide rules that can be used to analyze code for a particular implementation of an operation. If a rule is triggered, a recommendation to replace the implementation with a more energy efficiency implementation can be provided, or the code can automatically be changed to include the more energy efficient implementation. Techniques for defining rules are also provided, such as by measuring or estimating energy used by various ways of implementing an operation. Measurement or estimation of energy used during code execution can be performed in a containerized environment, such as to provide improved accuracy, and allow for parallelization.
