چکیده
This paper describes a hybrid technical-financial procedure for allocating cost in a large data center. It is designed as a modeling tool to permit IIWHAT-IF" analyses for various configurations, levels of costing. etc. The use of modular programming, independent tables, and matrix output allows the modeler maximum flexibility in allocating cost according to changing technical and financial considerations. The first segment of the procedure focuses on a technique for determining primary system capacity. The second segment generates the cost-allocation mechanism, which assesses cost to users based on their individual impact on capacity.
