Sustainable software - expert talk and documentation

So far, no consistent definitions or generally accepted standards exist for Sustainable Software. On 28th November 2014, the Federal Environment Agency and Oeko-Institut e.V. hosted a consultation, inviting representatives from science, software development and application to develop a common understanding of Sustainable Software. This documentation summarizes the short presentations and keeps records of the experts’ discussions. Additionally, an outlook is given on further research that is needed to develop Sustainable Software and for its future labelling.
