Abstract
The necessity to adapt current products and services into a way of working environmentally friendly is already a social and economic demand. Although the GreenIT can be considered a mature discipline, software sustainability, both in its process and its use, has not begun to be a topic of interest until the last few years. In this sense we think is fundamental to define what we consider that is software sustainability and how to evaluate it properly.
