Energy Efficiency across Programming LanguagesHow Do Energy , Time, and Memory Relate?Rui PereiraHASLab/INESC TECUniversidade do Minho, CoutoHASLab/INESC TECUniversidade do Minho, Ribeiro, Rui RuaHASLab/INESC TECUniversidade do Minho, come CunhaNOVA LINCS, DI, FCTUniv. Nova de Lisboa, o Paulo FernandesRelease/LISP, CISUCUniversidade de Coimbra, o SaraivaHASLab/INESC TECUniversidade do Minho, paper presents a study of the runtime, memory usageand Energy consumption of twenty seven well-known soft-ware Languages . We monitor the performance of such lan-guages using ten different Programming problems, expressedin each of the Languages . Our results show interesting find-ings, such as, slower/faster Languages consuming less/moreenergy, and how memory usage influences Energy consump-tion.

We show how to use our results to provide software engineers support to decide which language to use when
