Abstract: Energy saving has been mainly focused on techniques to extend the products longevity or to virtualize physical resources. On the contrary, less attention has been paid on the applications that run on the machines and that also contribute to the energy consumption. In this paper we introduce an approach for defining energy-aware adaptive business process co-design.
