The business decision to purchase an AIMS takes into account the net present value (NPV) of daily cash flows, the total cost of
calculations. Total cost of ownership and ROI are limited by their exclusion of the time value of money and a bias against long-
ownership focuses on training, maintenance, and technical support costs, which are uncertain and difficult to estimate. Capita

Cost estimates for the AIMS software, servers, workstations, routers, and cables are proposed [9]. Assuming that net working
