“How to Address Integration and Interoperability for Campus Mass-Notification Systems,” a CSE live webcast on www.csemag.com. Security-system expert William Sako, executive vice president, RJA, is the instructor for this how-to webcast that is archived on the website and available free-of-charge to all interested users. The webcast originally aired June 21.

“Optimizing Photovoltaic Design,” Parts I and II, by Hernando Miranda, president of Soltierra, Carlsbad, Calif., can be found by going to CSE Communities on the csemag.com homepage and clicking on the Green Buildings community. Miranda argues that typical approaches to PV design often results in less-than-optimum energy production and larger PV arrays than might be required—meaning greater cost to a building owner.

Also in the Green Building community, regular columnist Jean Lupinacci, director of the Commercial and Industrial Branch in the Climate Protection Partnership Div. at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, explains that standards for green consider a number of green factors.
