Exploring Genetic Improvement of the Carbon Footprint of Web Pages
Paper i proceeding, 2024
In this study, we explore automated reduction of the carbon footprint of web pages through genetic improvement, a process that produces alternative versions of a program by applying program transformations intended to optimize qualities of interest. We introduce a prototype tool that imposes transformations to HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code, as well as image resources, that minimize the quantity of data transferred and memory usage while also minimizing impact to the user experience (measured through loading time and number of changes imposed).
