Permacomputing

2023-10-27T02:16:05Z

Neauoire:

Permacomputing is both a concept and a community of practice oriented around issues of [[resilience]] and regenerativity in computer and network technology inspired by permaculture.

In a time where computing epitomizes [[industrial waste]], permacomputing encourages the maximizing of hardware lifespans, minimizing energy use and focusing on the use of already available computational resources. We do this we want to find out how we can practice good relations with the Earth by learning from ecological systems to leverage and re-center existing technologies and practices. We are also interested in investigating what a permacomputing way of life could be, and what sort of transformative computational culture and aesthetics it could bring forward.

Create low-power systems that strengthens the biosphere and use the wide-area network sparingly. Minimize the use of artificial energy, fossil fuels and mineral resources. Don't create systems that obfuscate waste.

==Introduction to the Infrastructure category==

The basic facilities, services, and installations needed for the functioning of a community, such as transportation and communications systems, water and electricity supply. Here Infrastructure is presented as means, technologies and methods that can be employed in the event civil infrastructure or a component of it becomes unavailable.

== The Four Concepts Of Resilience ==

* '''Resilience as Rebound''': Rebound is about returning to normal functioning after a disruption.
* '''Resilience as Robustness''': Robustness is the ability of a system to resist known disruptions.
* '''Resilience as Graceful Extensibility''': Graceful extensibility suggests the ability to grow from surprises which stands in contrast to robustness or graceful degradation, which only allow us to mitigate breakdowns.
* '''Resilience as Sustained Adaptability''': Sustained adaptability addresses a system's dynamics over life cycles or multiple cycles. The
architecture of the system needs to be equipped with the wherewithal to adapt when it will face predictable changes and challenges across its life cycle.
