Abstract
This article deals with two life cycle assessment methods; Attributional (LCA-A) and Consequential (LCA-C). The objective is to bring new perspectives in the field of Eco-design for different types of product applications, particularly in IT, on a macroscopic, conceptual scale, and through different operational tools. In another context, a first work of simplification of the LCAs has been done to be able to handle and test the relevance of the different applicable tools. This work is summered at the part 2.5 and 2.6. By linking the field of Eco-design to Artificial Intelligence (AI), more precisely to Deep Learning and Machine Learning, while using also mathematical algorithms, we have new perspectives to gives to the domain of LCA. The study is currently in its infancy and the algorithms still non-existent and to be developed.
