    Abstract: In one aspect, the present disclosure provides a method for optimizing business workflows. The method may comprise generating a work flow map based on one or more model business maps, wherein the one or more model business maps correspond to one or more processes or procedures of a model business; optimizing the work flow map for a target business by adjusting the work flow map based on a business characteristic of the target business, wherein the target business is different than the model business; and generating one or more training programs based on the optimized work flow map.

    Abstract: Improved energy conservation, including realization of a ZNET (Zero Net Energy including Transportation) paradigm, can be encouraged by providing energy consumers with a holistic view of their overall energy consumption. Current energy consumption in terms of space heating, water heating, other electricity, and personal transportation can be modeled by normalizing the respective energy consumption into the same units of energy. Options for reducing energy that can include traditional energy efficiencies, such as cutting down on and avoiding wasteful energy use and switching to energy efficient fixtures, and improving the thermal efficiency and performance of a building, can be modeled. Additional options can also include non-traditional energy efficiencies, such as replacing a gasoline-powered vehicle with an electric vehicle, fuel switching from a water heater fueled by natural gas to a heat pump water heater, and fuel switching from space heating fueled by natural gas to a heat pump space heater.
