Title :
Optimal instrument selection
Author :
Marion, Randall L.
Abstract :
Optimal instrument selection requires selection of a comparison methodology and conversion of instrument parameters to a common basis. Life cycle cost is an ideal comparison methodology because the conversion to cost/benefit (dollars) is familiar to most engineers. Examples of life cycle cost difference studies are given.
