US Classification:

600300, 702 19, 20440304

Abstract:

A system ( ) for subscription monitoring of a medically significant characteristic of a bodily fluid which includes a meter ( ), a ROM circuit ( ), a test strip ( ), and a registry ( ). Meter ( ) has an identifier corresponding to a subscription user. ROM circuit ( ) is provided with test strips ( ), and contains calibration data and an identifier. The meter ( ) requires an activation code before it may conduct a biosensing test. The meter ( ) communicates with registry ( ) through communication means ( ) and provides the meter identifier and ROM circuit identifier. Registry ( ) checks for valid association of the meter identifier, ROM circuit identifier, and user identifier. If a valid association is established, the registry ( ) provides an activation code to the meter ( ), enabling meter ( ) to conduct testing during a subscription period. The meter ( ) thereafter validates the ROM circuit ( ) association on power up, so that ROM circuit ( ) may only be used with meter ( ), thereby discouraging fraudulent conveyance of ROM circuit ( ) and test strips ( ).

International Classification:

G06Q 10/06

Abstract:

A novel location and marking system is configured to provide a seamless in-the-field access to resource and asset information databases with automated functionality that effectively and more efficiently manages, controls, and distributes data according to some embodiments. In some embodiments, such systems can enable utilities to manage assets in real-time, provide map asset status, and provide automatic ticket routing, dispatching and management. For example, in some embodiments, the system is configured to generate maps with identifiers or components of an active division including tickets of one or more assets of an active division. These assets include sites of residential and business gas, electrical, and/or water and sewer conduits and metering systems, as well as related underground infrastructure that can be susceptible to earthquakes, ground disturbances, and other emergency situations according to some embodiments.
