Abstract

In this article, we highlight the carbon footprint of data transport on Internet infrastructures by bringing together a series of studies that break down the carbon impact of digital technologies and detail the geography and routing of the Internet. The article also draws a comparison between three types of digital infrastructure where digital services are hosted either in the cloud, at the edge, or in an Internet of Edges. This comparison emphasizes the advantages of establishing shorter data routes to reduce the carbon footprint of digital communications.

云、边缘和边缘互联网的碳足迹

在本文中，我们汇集了一系列研究，这些研究分解了数字技术的碳影响，并详细介绍了互联网的地理位置和路由，从而强调了互联网基础设施上数据传输的碳足迹。本文还对三种类型的数字基础设施进行了比较，其中数字服务托管在云中、边缘或边缘互联网中。这种比较强调了建立更短的数据路由以减少数字通信的碳足迹的优势。

期刊介绍： Annals of Telecommunications is an international journal publishing original peer-reviewed papers in the field of telecommunications. It covers all the essential branches of modern telecommunications, ranging from digital communications to communication networks and the internet, to software, protocols and services, uses and economics. This large spectrum of topics accounts for the rapid convergence through telecommunications of the underlying technologies in computers, communications, content management towards the emergence of the information and knowledge society. As a consequence, the Journal provides a medium for exchanging research results and technological achievements accomplished by the European and international scientific community from academia and industry.
