Abstract: Systems, apparatus, articles of manufacture, and methods are disclosed to reduce emissions in guided network environments. An apparatus includes interface circuitry, machine readable instructions, and programmable circuitry to at least one of instantiate or execute the machine readable instructions to collect data from respective network nodes corresponding to a request to access information, predict an emission of accessing the information via the respective network nodes using the data, and select a network path including at least one of the network nodes based on the predicted emission.

Abstract: Systems, apparatus, articles of manufacture, and methods are disclosed to store data based on an environmental impact of a storage device. An example apparatus to store data, the apparatus includes programmable circuitry to at least one of instantiate or execute the machine readable instructions to determine a first environmental impact associated with storing the data in a first storage device, determine a second environmental impact associated with storing the data in a second storage device, and cause the data to be stored in one of the first storage device or the second storage device based on the first environmental impact and the second environmental impact.

Abstract: A first router is configured for monitoring prescribed attributes of an active path connected to the first router, and supplying an update message to a second router, according to a prescribed routing protocol such as Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), that specifies a detected change by the first router in at least one of the prescribed attributes of the connected active path. Hence, the second router, in response to receiving the update message, can update an internal topology table based on the detected change in the active path connected to the first router, and selectively adjust an internal routing table based on the detected change relative to queuing policies for prescribed data flows.
