294 ;;Quote: billing systems for utilities can cost 10-30% of revenue; UK parking meters cost 70-80% of revenue
294 ;;Quote: cryptographic micropayment system for electricity meters; many users, low overhead, robust
297 ;;Quote: used 20-digit cryptographic tokens; provides man-machine interface between customer and electricity meter
297 ;;Quote: print 20-digit cryptographic token in two lines of four-digit groups; significantly reduced error rate
297 ;;Quote: key management was tricky; used a secure processor in a credit control hierarchy; refilling the processor's credit counter required a higher level transaction
299 ;;Quote: no matter what is done, small mistakes with large consequences will still occur; prolonged field testing is necessary for a payment system
300 ;;Quote: most frauds were due to loopholes caused by design and management errors; exploited opportunistically by operators and customers; for example, shorting the 11 kV feeder to credit a meter
