ArneTR··on Eco-CI: CO2 Emissions of GitHub/Gitlab Pipelines
Eco-CI is a project aimed at estimating energy consumption in continuous integration (CI) environments. It provides functionality to calculate the energy consumption of CI jobs based on the power consumption characteristics of the underlying hardware.

Eco-CI supports both GitHub and GitLab as CI platforms. When you integrate it into your pipeline, you must call the start-measurement script to begin collecting power consumption data, then call the get-measurement script each time you wish to make a spot measurement. When you call get-measurment, you can also assign a label to it to more easily identify the measurement. At the end, call the display-results to see all the measurement results, overall total usage, and export the data.

ArneTR··on Ask HN: Who wants to collaborate? (April 2022)
I am aware of the label and also that Okular got the first certification in Germany.

However I believe that the certification in its current form has limited value. But we thrive to integrate it into our toolchain.

Have you been part of the team that went through the certification process? I would love to get in touch and ask some questions :)

ArneTR··on Ask HN: Who wants to collaborate? (April 2022)
I am doing research on how to measure the energy consumption and thus carbon emission of software.

The toolchain will be open-source and the data free use. Currently it is only a prototype and there are many open research questions to be solved.

If any of you is interested in this topic or would like to connect please feel free to contact me.

Currently we are a team of two and I also have backed the research through my own company and can supply compensation for the open source work. Would love to find like minded people in this domain.
