The article was titled: Inflow-Outflow Net Equivalents for Recovery Point Analysis
of Improvement Model.
of Improvement Model.
Here is the Abstract:
One of the major expenses to operate facilities is the cost of energy. An education enterprise such as school facility requires every year major budget consideration for the consumed electricity; especially, facilities need to be powered day long. This project tries to an analysis of adding basic improvement technology for dorms in a typical public-school by using investment recovery approach. Equivalents flow model has been developed to the consumed electricity system for five years term, and used to test the improvements. Analyzing the result showed the payback period is 6.275 years while the lifespan of windows tint on average lasts 10 years, therefore investing in this technology instillation is strongly supported decision to decrease the amount of electricity consumed which provides more saving in the budget as a result of annual evaluation.

Congrats to both.
FYI, the Honors College provided partial financial support for the research.
