Eco-design consists in taking into account environmental and sanitary impacts during conception or improvement phases of a product or service. It is perceived more and more like a value creation process, in all kind of businesses and areas. This phenomenon is growing as companies get more sensitive to their share of responsibility in the future of subjects such as our planet or next generations. The other reason is firms realize the numerous benefits they can get out of such a process.

Software is everywhere. Because yes, software impacts directly our daily life: uberization, digitalization… but let’s stop the “buzzword-ization” right here. We, developers, are the architects of a virtual world serving real life. Our work has an impact on companies and life. If we accept to be credited for the numerous benefits realized, then let’s be honest and also recognize the drawbacks. Social exclusion, diverse impacts on the environment, digital gap… all of these are real effects caused by the software we produce.

You must know that a qualitative application shouldn’t consume too much resources on a user’s smartphone. It is a requirement for it to be adopted and then used in proper conditions. So, you decided to get down to work and control this consumption of diverse resources (CPU, memory, data, etc), energy, application size etc. Even if you you are a good patterns and development languages expert, road to hell is paved with good intentions!

GREENSPECTOR is a tool detecting software’s behaviors which have an impact on resources consumption (energy, memory…). In order to do that, we use a set of techniques allowing the developer to be furthermore precise in its observations, thus leading to greater gains with fewer efforts. Code analysis and recognition of consuming patterns are part of these techniques. Most of the time, code analysis is mainly focused on a syntactic recognition (as we can see in an IDE – Interface Development Environment – whenever we code and the IDE offers another type of writing).
