  • Publication number: 20240228120
    Abstract: A reclosable enclosure includes front and back panels and a reclosable mechanism. The front panel and the back panel are coupled to each other and form an interior cavity therebetween. The front panel is configured to form an access slot that extends widthwise along the front panel. The reclosable mechanism is coupled to an interior side of the front panel along the access slot. The reclosable mechanism has a first profile and a second profile forming a zipper. The first profile includes a user tab that is accessible through the access slot. The user tab is configured to assist in separating the first and second profiles to provide an opening to the interior cavity of the reclosable enclosure.

  • Publication number: 20190155271
    Abstract: The example embodiments are directed to a system and method for determining an improvement to an asset created by installation of a software application associated with the asset. In one example, the method includes determining an operating performance of an asset operating based on a performance modifying application being installed, establishing a baseline operating performance of the asset from a virtual model of the asset which is running without the performance modifying application installed, determining a change in an operating characteristic of the asset in response to the performance modifying application being installed based on the operating performance of the asset determined from the asset and the baseline operating performance of the asset determined from the virtual model of the asset, and outputting information about the determined change in the operating characteristic of the asset for display on a display device.
