Determining installation locations for meters
A system and method for determining installation locations for meters are disclosed herein. The method includes generating, via a computing device, a resource map for a site, wherein the resource map includes inflow locations and corresponding outflow locations for a resource. The method also includes identifying a number of tiers within the resource map based on the inflow locations and the corresponding outflow locations for the resource. The method further includes determining a number of recommended installation locations for meters based on the tiers.

Methods and apparatus for defining a probe configuration using a probe configuration tool
A method for defining a probe configuration using an interactive probe configuration tool is provided. The probe configuration tool comprises a shaft icon displayed on the probe configuration tool, and a probe position indicator configured to display an orientation of at least one first probe icon relative to the shaft icon. The probe position indicator is further configured to modify the orientation of the at least one first probe icon based on input from a user. The probe configuration tool further comprises a probe type indicator configured to display a type of the at least one first probe icon, wherein the probe position indicator and the probe type indicator are simultaneously displayed on a presentation interface.
Specimen analysis system, specimen analyzer, and specimen analysis method
A specimen analysis system, a specimen analyzer, and a specimen analysis method are provided by which reexamination of a specimen can be executed more quickly than in conventional technology. A specimen analyzer measures a specimen and obtains an analysis result. The specimen analyzer determines the necessity of remeasurement of the specimen, based on a specimen analysis result. Also, the specimen analyzer determines, based on the specimen analysis result, whether or not determination of the necessity of remeasurement of the specimen based on examination information by the examination information management device is necessary. If it is determined that determination of the necessity of remeasurement of the specimen based on the examination information is necessary, the specimen analyzer makes a request to determine the necessity of remeasurement of the specimen based on the examination information, to the examination information management device.

Detection of device compliance with an operational policy
A detection device may monitor emissions from a computing device, which may include radiation and/or radio waves from a computing device. The emissions may be electromagnetic (EM) radiation indicative of operation of components of the computing device. When the emissions reach or exceed an emissions threshold, the detection device may output an indicator. The indicator may indicate a violation of an operational policy that is associated with the emissions threshold. The indicator may additionally or alternatively indicate compliance with the operation policy. In some embodiments, the detection device may be implemented as an accessory such as a case, a cover, a light, or another type of accessory for the computing device.
