A method of managing a fluid or gas reservoir is disclosed which assimilates diverse data having different acquisition time scales and spatial scales of coverage for iteratively producing a reservoir development plan that is used for optimizing an overall performance of a reservoir. The method employs laser ablation of the pattern in a coating layer, followed by the application of ink in the laser-ablated pattern. The access reviewer may identify a set of current logical computing resources that the user has access to and a set of current logical entitlements associated with the user. A battery is provided for selectively heating the heating element. The identification of a subset and performing of the predetermined test may be repeated for different subsets of the information set, so that all of the subsets in the information set have been tested.
