Abstract

Methods and systems are configured for real time determination of effects incurred by execution of computer processes of networked computer systems and the generation of offsets thereof. A prediction module may be configured to predict the amount of energy utilized by the execution of computer processes by networked computer systems and predict an associated carbon footprint. Methods and systems are configured to determine a selection of offsets and initiate the same via a network communication to remote computer systems.
