Integrating Sustainability in ICT Planning: A Thin Client Network for Small Schools

This document outlines strategies for integrating sustainability into ICT projects within small schools, emphasizing the use of a thin client network powered by Windows OS. It details energy-efficient architecture, renewable energy usage, and e-waste reduction. Key recommendations include the analysis of energy audit data, selecting energy-efficient hardware, and implementing power management software. By focusing on a pilot project model, the aim is to establish best practices for resource conservation and continuous improvement in alignment with industry benchmarks.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Small School Thin Client Network Using Windows OS

  2. Preparing to Integrate sustainability in ICT planning and design projects • develop and monitor policies for review and improvements, benchmarking against industry best practice and attempting new approaches continuously over time. • analyseenergy audit data on enterprise resource consumption • plan and integrate sustainability into ICT projects by devising strategies to conserve resources

  3. ICT sustainability from a business standpoint • Selecting energy efficient architecture with longer life cycle. • Using renewable energy • Reducing e-waste • Pilot projects • How to produce an energy audit • Choosing energy efficient hardware • Using power management software

  4. Energy efficiency as a stepping stone to sustainability • Choosing energy efficient hardware • Using power management software • Selecting energy efficient architecture – with longer life cycle, better utility • Using renewable energy • Reducing e-waste

  5. Individual Project Strategy • Thin client network for a small school • 1 server with Windows OS • 1 local printer • 1 router to connect to the Internet • 20 hp t410 AiO thin clients • 1 24 port switch with PoE

  6. Network operation and security • Windows OS on server • Thin clients pxe into server • Anti Virus run on server • Thin clients need authentication to log in

  7. Sketch of the recommended project system

  8. Short term technology solutions to achieve reduction of power consumption • Using hp t410 AiO we can control the thin clients through the switch • Having the switch powered on from 7am to 5pm will reduce our power consumption

  9. Energy usage within the ICT project

  10. Recommendations and Conclusion. • Green ICTs are of global relevance. It is essential to limit the direct environmental impacts of ICTs in emerging economies • ICT applications can help limit accelerating energy use and material consumption in all countries. • Financing and local skills issues are likely to be key factors in successful strategies to diffuse and deploy smart ICT applications globally.
