Project #60: Towards a sustainable future

Vision an mission

Sustainability is a vital aspect of any business; software engineering is no exception.
It is well-known that individuals, state agencies and companies all have to contribute to limit the negative effects of climate change and the biological environment.  Other dimensions necessary for a sustainable future are Social, Individual, Technical, and Economic. The latter four are highly relevant for Software Center as work of engineers changes rapidly with the use of Large-Language Model based assistant tools.

Project description

The project works on three topics in parallel:

  1. Creating and maintaining the CoDig sustainability plan
  2. Comparing frameworks for sustainable software engineering
  3. Defining aspects of mental harm in system security risk management
