You want the external team to collaborate with the internal developer team in a process that's easy and secure. With Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) business to business (B2B), you can add people from other companies to your Azure AD tenant as guest users.
If your organization has multiple Azure AD tenants, you may also want to use Azure AD B2B to give a user in tenant A access to resources in tenant B. Each Azure AD tenant is distinct and separate from other Azure AD tenants and has its own representation of identities and app registrations.
In any scenario where external users need temporary or restricted access to your organization's resources, give them guest user access. You can grant guest user access with the appropriate restrictions in place. Then remove access when the work is done.
You can use the Azure portal to invite B2B collaboration users. Invite guest users to the Azure AD organization, group, or application. After you invite a user, their account is added to Azure AD as a guest account.
The guest can get the invitation through email. Or you can share the invitation to an application by using a direct link. The guest then redeems their invitation to access the resources.
By default, users and administrators in Azure AD can invite guest users. But this ability can be limited or disabled by the Global Administrator.
If your organization has to manage the identities of each external guest user who belongs to a given partner organization, it faces increased responsibilities--because it has to secure those identities. There's an increased workload to manage and administer those identities. You also have to sync accounts, manage the life cycle of each account, and track each individual external account to meet your obligations. Your organization has to follow this procedure for every partner organization it wants to collaborate with. Also, if something happens to those accounts, your organization is liable.
With Azure Active Directory B2B, you don't have to manage your external users' identities. The partner has the responsibility to manage its own identities. External users continue to use their current identities to collaborate with your organization.
For example, say you work with the external partner Giovanna Carvalho at Proseware. Her organization manages her identity as<EMAIL_ADDRESS>You use that identity for the guest account in your organization's Azure AD. After Giovanna redeems the guest account invitation, she uses the same identity (name and password) for the guest account as she does for her organization.
With Azure AD B2B, you don't take on the responsibility of managing and authenticating the credentials and identities of partners. Your partners can collaborate with you even if they don't have an IT department. For example, you can collaborate with a contractor who only has a personal or business email address and no identity management solution managed by an IT department.
Giving access to external users is much easier than in a federation. You don't need an AD administrator to create and manage external user accounts. Any authorized user can invite other users. A line manager could, for example, invite external users to collaborate with their team. When collaboration is no longer needed, these external users can easily be removed.
A federation is more complex. A federation is where you have a trust established with another organization, or a collection of domains, for shared access to a set of resources. You might be using an on-premises identity provider and authorization service like Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) that has an established trust with Azure AD. To get access to resources, all users have to provide their credentials and successfully authenticate against the AD FS server. If you have someone trying to authenticate outside the internal network, you need to set up a web application proxy. The architecture might look something like the following diagram:
An on-premises federation with Azure AD might be good if your organization wants all authentication to Azure resources to happen in the local environment. Administrators can implement more rigorous levels of access control. But this means that, if your local environment is down, users can't access the Azure resources and services they need.
With a B2B collaboration, external teams get the required access to Azure resources and services with the appropriate permissions. There's no need for a federation and trust to be established, and authentication doesn't depend on an on-premises server. Authentication is done directly through Azure. Collaboration becomes simplified, and you don't have to worry about situations where users can't sign in because an on-premises directory isn't available.

Dictionary-like configuration objects.¶
We provide a simple reusable configuration mechanism for benchbuild that supports default values, override through environment variables, and configuration files.
The class Configuration
¶
At the heart of benchbuild’s configuration system you can find the class ‘Configuration’.
Basic Usage¶
You can store settings for your project inside the class Configuration
.
Upon construction you need to provide a namespace to house all configuration variables
in, such as “BB” for BenchBuild.
CFG = Configuration("bb")
You can extend the configuration by inner nodes and leaf nodes, forming a tree-like data structure. Inner nodes are simple dictionaries and can span arbitrary nesting structures. Leaf nodes are dictionaries that contain the following keys: - default: Stores the default value for the configuration option. - desc: A description for this configuration option. The current value a leaf node holds will be stored in the ‘value’ key of a leaf node.
CFG['my_config'] = {
'option_1' : {
'default': True,
'desc': 'Toggle option 1'
},
'option_2' : {
'default': True,
'desc': 'Toggle option 2'
},
}
You can access the current values inside your application code using the value()
method
on a leaf node, after the configuration is set for the first time.
This will return the stored value in its current representation/type.
You can access the string representation using an explicit conversion by applying the str
method on a leaf node.
The initial value can either be set manually with an assignment to the leaf node (see example below), or with default initialization through setup_config
and update_env
.
> CFG['my_config']['option_1'] = True
> type(CFG['my_config']['option_1'].value())
bool
> CFG['my_config']['option_1'].value()
True
> str(CFG['my_config']['option_1'])
'True'
Automatic Generation of Environment Variables.¶
The configuration is able to provide a neat serialized representation that can be used in shell scripts. Any configuration node can be represented as a document of environment variables.
> CFG['my_config']['option_2'] = False
> CFG['my_config']['option_1']
BB_MY_CONFIG_OPTION_1=true
> CFG['my_config']
BB_MY_CONFIG_OPTION_1=true
BB_MY_CONFIG_OPTION_2=false
The environment variable names can be used to control the setting of a configuration
option via the environment of benchbuild.
The values stored in the environment variable are YAML representations of the objects stored in the value
property of the leaf node.
Automatic Initialization¶
The configuration can be initialized using the functions setup_config
and update_env
.
Both are meant to be called from the user code during program setup/module load of the user-specific configuration.
import benchbuild.utils.settings as s
CFG = s.Configuration('bb')
CFG['my_config'] = {
'option_1' : {
'default': True,
'desc': 'Toggle option 1'
}
}
s.setup_config(CFG)
s.update_env(CFG)
Setup Config¶
The function setup_config
triggers configuration initialization from default values and
config file. It follows the ruleset:
1. Check for a filepath in environment variable: BB_CONFIG_FILE
, or
2. Recursively lookup the default config file, starting from the current working
directory upwards to the root of the filesystem.
3. Load configuration from file, if found in (1) or (2), and
4. Initialize all configuration options from the environment.
Update Environment¶
The function update_env
is benchbuild-specific and updates the environment of the
running process. We update the variables:
- PATH
from *_ENV_PATH
- LD_LIBRARY_PATH
from *_ENV_LD_LIBRARY_PATH
This updates the plumbum local-machine environment as well and enables program lookup in user-defined paths.
API reference¶
Settings module for benchbuild.
All settings are stored in a simple dictionary. Each setting should be modifiable via environment variable.

screen scraping

--------------
**screen scraping**: v.
The act of capturing data from a system or program by snooping the
contents of some display that is not actually intended for data
transport or inspection by programs. Around 1980 this term referred to
tricks like reading the display memory of a smart terminal through its
auxiliary port. Nowadays it often refers to parsing the HTML in
generated web pages with programs designed to mine out particular
patterns of content. In either guise screen-scraping is an ugly, ad-hoc,
last-resort technique that is very likely to break on even minor changes
to the format of the data being snooped.

MyTAP
MyTAP is a suite of database functions that make it easy to write
TAP-emitting unit tests in
mysql
scripts. The TAP output is suitable for harvesting,
analysis, and reporting by a TAP harness, such as those used in Perl
applications.
Why would you want to unit test your database? Well, there are a couple of scenarios in which it can be useful.
Application Development
So you write MySQL-backed applications, maybe in Rails, or Django, or Catalyst, and because you’re an agile developer, you write lots of tests to make sure that your application works as you practice iterative development. But, as one of the most important parts of your application, should you not also test the database? Sure, you write tests of your API, and the API covers the database, but that’s not really unit testing the database itself, is it?
MyTAP allows you to really test the database, not only verifying the structure of your schema, but also by exercising any views, procedures, functions, or triggers you write. Of course you could use your application’s unit-testing framework to test the database, but by writing your tests with MyTAP, you can keep your database tests simple. Consider these simple tests written with Test::More and the Perl DBI to test a custom database function:
use Test::More tests => 3;
use DBI;
my $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:mysql:database=try', ''root, '' );
# Start a transaction.
$dbh->begin;
END { $dbh->rollback; $dbh->disconnect; }
my $domain_id = 1;
my $src_id = 2;
# Insert stuff.
ok $dbh->do(
'SELECT insert_stuff( ?, ?, ?, ?)',
undef, 'www.foo.com', '1, 2, 3', $domain_id, $src_id
), 'Inserting some stuff should return true;
# Grab the stuff records.
ok my $stuff = $dbh->selectall_arrayref(q{
SELECT stuff_id
FROM domain_stuff
WHERE domain_id = ?
AND src_id = ?
ORDER BY stuff_id
}, undef, $domain_id, $src_id), 'Fetch the domain stuff';
# Make sure we have the right stuff.
is_deeply $stuff, [ 1, 2, 3 ], 'The rows should have the right stuff';
The upshot is that you have to connect to the database, set up transactions, execute the database functions, fetch back data into Perl data structures, and then compare values. Now consider the equivalent written with MyTAP:
-- Start a transaction.
BEGIN;
SELECT tap.plan( 2 );
SET @domain_id 1;
SET @src_id 1;
-- Insert stuff.
SELECT tap.ok(
insert_stuff( 'www.foo.com', '1,2,3', @domain_id, @src_id ),
'insert_stuff() should return true'
);
-- Check for domain stuff records.
SELECT tap.eq(
GROUP_CONCAT(stuff_id),
'1,2,3',
'The stuff should have been associated with the domain'
) FROM domain_stuff
WHERE domain_id = @domain_id
AND src_id = @src_id
ORDER BY stuff_id;
CALL finish();
ROLLBACK;
Now isn’t that a lot easier to read? Unlike the Perl tests, the MyTAP tests can just compare values directly in the database. There is no need to do any extra work to get the database interface to talk to the database, fetch data, convert it, etc. You just use SQL. And if you’re working hard to keep SQL in the database and application code in the application, why would you write database tests in Application code? Just write them in SQL and be done with it!
Schema Validation
Even better is the scenario in which you need to test your database schema objects, to make sure that everything is where it should be. MyTAP provides a wealth of test functions that make schema testing a snap!:
BEGIN;
SELECT tap.plan( 4 );
SELECT tap.has_table( DATABASE(), 'domains' );
SELECT tap.has_table( DATABASE(), 'stuff' );
SELECT tap.has_table( DATABASE(), 'sources' );
SELECT tap.has_table( DATABASE(), 'domain_stuff' );
CALL tap.finish();
ROLLBACK;
And there are many more testing functions to be had. Read the complete documentation for all the good stuff.
Library Development
If you’re developing third-party libraries for MySQL, perhaps
writing functions
and procedures
or user-defined
functionsa, agile development demands that you write tests as you
go. MyTAP makes it easy. See
its own test
suite for a good example of such test-driven developement tests.
Runing them
with my_prove
looks like so:
% my_prove -u root -D try tests/
tests/eq.my ........ ok
tests/hastap.my .... ok
tests/matching.my .. ok
tests/moretap.my ... ok
tests/todotap.my ... ok
tests/utils.my ..... ok
All tests successful.

An interactive project where a berry garden notices the type of berries you like and grows more of it.
Version one of the ecosystem
I wanted to create an analogy using nature to represent privacy and data issues in our current world. Initially, my idea was to recreate the grocery shopping experience but it wasn't "natural". Hence, I started to find inspiration by looking back to how we get groceries before industrialization. That was when I remembered about foraging.
Version 2 of the ecosystem
For week 2, I revised the system diagram according to the feedbacks in class. It grew to become more complex that when I started to code it, it turnt out to be harder than I imagined
Coding the interaction for the falling fruits
Coding the interaction for the basket interaction
For week 3, I was unsatisfied with what I had for system. I wanted to go back to week 1 where it felt more like a privacy analogy than an actual game. So I changed the diagram to be more simpler but I wanted to add feedback based on user input.
Version 3 of the ecosystem
For week 3, I started by coding the objects and interactions first. First was to make sure the object disappear when clicked and it is added into the counter. Afterwards, I populated the sketch with different type of berries with various colors and different counters for each.
First try of one berry and counter.
Multiple berries and counters.
I replaced the ellipses and background with an image. Originally, I want to add a timer for how long you can pick these berries. The berries you picked the most will show up more and more often as you play through the rounds. However, due to the lack of time, I'm satisfied as to where this project is right now since it is the first time I've ever touched Java or Processing. For a 3 weeks project, I am satisfied with it.
Our misconception about prototypes are the fidelity and resolution of it. We tend to place very high emphasis on its looks and functions as we are fearful of the misunderstandings that users or our stakeholders might have of our idea and ability. Hence, we tend to forget that the significance of a prototype is to test the artifact rather than using it as a showcase piece of our skills to others.
As long as the idea is represented, the prototype could be anything including the use of competitors' artifacts or even existing unrelated products for analogous research.
From this I learnt there are three types of prototype. The most surprising was the role-based prototype as I never really considered a prototype to be a scenario or saw the importance in it. Only after learning about it that I found value in creating those prototypes as it is the most fundamnetal test on whether an idea should even exist.

To support my research activity, I designed and developed several prototypes and tool sets.
I developed a java tool set that can mine and analyze the structural properties of git repositories.
The final goal would be to assess correlations between the repository topology and good/bad development
practices which affect the code evolution.
The source code is freely available here.
I designed and developed a decentralized java P2P service that enables users to define personal preferences to be used to modify the distribution overlay topology of file sharing P2P applications.

Below are some of our past projects done through school assignments.
For the subject IS-213 - Open Source
we could choose any project as long as it was a project focused on open source.
We chose to create a game.
The game is created using Unity, which utilises C#-scripts along with prefabs and other project resources to allow one to
design the entire game within the Unity editor. As only about half of the group had experience with Unity, we decided to
keep the game 2D, to keep the complexity relatively low. This allowed us to focus more on the playability of the game. It also
meant making sprites for the game was a lot simpler. Sprites were created using programs like Aseprite and Adobe Illustrator.
While the game was never finished, we still managed to get it to a playable state, where the basic mechanics works mostly as
we want them to.
For the subject IS 202 - Programming project
we had to create a system where lecturers and students could
get information about and interact with courses and modules.
The project was completed using only Java, using a TomCat server to host the web pages. The data about various courses,
modules and users were stored in a MySQL database.
For the subject IS-105 - Data Communications and Operating Systems
our group was bigger than its current state,
and we had to split into two groups for the projects. One group created a website that displayed real-time information about
the International Space Station.
This was accomplished by fetching the GPS-coordinates from a public API, and sending the coordinates to various Google APIs.
We were able to retrieve the following:

Estimate glomerular filtration rate using the Cockroft-Gault equation.
What would is your best estimate of this patient's glomerular filtration rate using the Cockroft-Gault equation?
Step 1: Draw a picture.
Make a quick sketch of what's going on in the question. This forces us to look at the question closely and avoid assumptions.
Click the button to the right when you've finished your picture.
While getting a "24-hour urine" and measuring how quickly the patient excretes creatinine would be optimal, it has one major drawback: It takes 24 hours. We need methods for estimating the patient's glomerular filtration rate quickly.
Cockroft and Gault developed an equation that estimates GFR based on the patient's
While it may not be the most accurate equation for estimating GFR, it can be done using paper and pencil (no calculator needed). For most situations involving drug dosing, it is close enough.
In this case, we know that the patient
Step 2: Predict answer.
In the time it took us to draw the picture, it's possible we may have forgotten what the question was asking. Go back and look at the question again. Answer these two questions:
Looking back at our question, we see that it is asking for a glomerular filtration rate. That's a measure of how fast the kidneys can filter blood. The usual way of expressing GFR is mL/minute. When directly measuring creatinine clearance using a 24-hour urine, we would cross out units in order to end up with mL/min. However, units don't cross out when using the Cockroft-Gault equation. Rather, we have to make sure we are using the same units that they did when they created the equation. We have to express
We know that a 'typical' GFR is usually about 100 mL/min. Some healthy, younger patients might have calculated GFRs of 125-150 mL/min. A person in renal failure might have a GFR of less than 10 mL/min.
Our answer is probably going to be somewhere between 0 - 150 mL/min.
Step 3: Select your tools.
Think about what equations help describe the situation. Which one are you going to use?
Click the button to the right when you have an equation in mind.
Obviously, we will use the Cockroft-Gault equation.
However, we need to think about how we are going to interpret the values we are going to enter into the equation.
Let's start with age. Intuitively, it makes sense that as age increases, GFR decreases.
The thing to keep in mind, though, is that Cockroft and Gault developed their equation using data collected from patients whom we would consider "young" or "middle-aged" adults. They didn't use data from many patients who were 70, 80 or 90 years old.
Let's think about the situation where we have a 90 year old man who weighs 50 kg with a serum creatinine of 0.4 mg/dL. That's a low serum creatinine. Is his serum creatinine low because he has super-performing kidneys?
Of course not. He has a very low creatinine because creatinine comes from muscle. He doesn't have as much muscle mass as a man who is 35 years old. So, he won't be making as much creatinine in the first place.
Some sources recommend ignoring the elderly patient's low actual serum creatinine and instead using 1.0 mg/dL in the Cockroft-Gault equation for such a patient. The idea is that since the patient's serum creatinine is "falsely low", arbitrarily increasing the creatinine will give us a closer estimate of the patient's actual GFR.
However, recent studies have suggested that this practice significantly underestimates the patient's GFR. A position paper published by ACCP calls rounding the serum creatinine to 1.0 mg/dL in elderly patients "common, [but] is not evidence-based".
So, what does one do? Probably the best solution when dealing with such a patient is to collect urine as soon as possible and directly measure the patient's creatinine clearance. Until that result comes back, dosing of drugs should use the elderly patient's actual serum creatinine in the Cockcroft-Gault equation. Then, the clinician should ask themselves:
The answers to such questions are, of course, beyond the scope of this tutorial.
The other extreme would be children. The Cockcroft-Gault equation was not developed for use in children and should not be used. There are other methods of estimating GFR in pediatric patients.
The next thing to think about is weight. Creatinine is produced by muscle, not by adipose tissue (fat). Looking at the Cockroft-Gault equation, it should be clear that using an obese patient's body weight would give a higher estimate the patient's GFR than that of an identical patient who was at their ideal body weight. It doesn't really make sense to think that someone who is grossly obese would have better functioning kidneys. Someone who is three times larger due to adipose tissue doesn't have three times larger kidneys.
So, the question is "What should we put in for weight when the patient is obese?" When the patient has BMI > 30 kg/m2, the best estimates of GFR seem to come from using a weight that reflects an obese person's muscle mass rather than their actual body weight.
There have been several strategies proposed for trying to estimate this "lean" body weight. This equation has been used most often to estimate "ideal body weight" in men.
The way this equation is used is that one subtracts 5 feet (60 inches) from the patient's height. That number is multipled times 2.3. Then 50 kg is added.
Here is the analogous equation for women.
In this case, the terms "ideal body weight" and "lean body weight" are being used inter-changeably. There really isn't anything "ideal" about IBW and a person who is above their IBW is not necessarily obese. "Lean body weight" is probably a better name. However, most textbooks and articles refer to that equation as "IBW", so that is what will be used here.
There are also other ways of estimating "lean body weight", some of which might be more appropriate for certain drugs.
If the patient is underweight (actual weight < IBW), one would use their actual body weight in the Cockcroft-Gault equation. One would not add kilograms that don't exist.
Serum creatinine is inversely proportional to GFR. The lower the patient's glomerular filtration rate, the more creatinine accumulates in the serum.
If the patient is female, the Cockcroft-Gault equation includes " x 0.85 ". The correction is included because when comparing a man and a woman of the same height and weight, the man will statistically have more muscle mass. Creatinine is a break-down product of muscle.
Step 4: Do the math.
Set up your equations and solve for the unknown (creatinine clearance).
Click the button to the right when you have a result.
The patient is {{ adultpatient.gender }}, so we would use this version of the Cockcroft-Gault equation.
The patient is {{ adultpatient.age }} years old. This might be old enough for the patient to be considered "elderly" (although there are some particularly fit and "young" {{ adultpatient.age }} year-olds). Also, this patient's serum creatinine is {{ adultpatient.creatinine }} mg/dL. Some clinicians would use "1" rather than "{{adultpatient.creatinine}}" in the Cockcroft-Gault equation in order to compensate for the decrease in muscle mass that usually occurs as patients age. However (as discussed above), this practice has little evidence behind it. We will use {{adultpatient.creatinine}} mg/dL as our serum creatinine.
The patient weighs {{ adultpatient.weight }} kg and is {{ adultpatient.height }} inches tall .
This patient would be considered obese since their BMI ({{ adultpatient.weight/((adultpatient.height*0.0254)*(adultpatient.height*0.0254)) | number:1 }} kg/m2) is greater than 30 kg/m2. Since creatinine is a product of muscle breakdown, we would get a better estimation of the patient's GFR if we used their "lean" or "ideal" body weight rather than their actual body weight.
Going forward, we would use {{ ibw | number:0 }} kg as their "weight" rather than {{ adultpatient.weight }} kg.
This gives us an estimated GFR for this patient of {{ CG | number: 0 }} mL/min.
Step 5: Does my answer make sense?.
Go back to Step 2.  Is the number in the same general range for the population predictions?
Click the button to the right when you've answered the questions.
Our answer was {{ CG | number: 0 }} mL/min, which is somewhere in the range we expected. So it sounds right.
One thing to keep in mind is that this is an estimate of measured creatinine clearance, which is itself an estimate of GFR. Confidence of the the estimate is decreased if the patient is elderly, obese or has rapidly changing renal function. So, if the patient is being treated with a drug with a narrow therapeutic index or is critically ill, a 24-hour urine collection to measure actual creatinine clearance would be advisable.

Gareth Bale: Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane not interested in flag furore
Zinedine Zidane is happy to have Gareth Bale fit and says there is no need to discuss his Wales flag celebration.
Bale has been criticised in Spain following Wales' Euro 2020 win over Hungary, when he was pictured with a flag saying "Wales. Golf. Madrid. In that order".
But Real Madrid manager Zidane has brushed the issue aside.
"Things can happen outside but we have to look inside the club. What happens outside doesn't bother us," he said.
"I have spoken to Gareth like I do all players, every day we say hello and we talk if we pass in the club and that's it.
"I am not interested in talking about what happened outside. He is OK and has trained normally with us and that is that.
"He is a player who has given lots to the club and I will look only at the sport, not what they say outside because there is a lot said and I am not here for that.
"I am not interested. It interests a lot of people but not me."
Zidane said in July it would be "best for everyone" if Bale left Real Madrid and the 30-year-old came close to joining Chinese club Jiangsu Suning.
But after Real called off the transfer at the last minute, Bale regained his place in Zidane's team.
Speaking at a news conference ahead of Real's La Liga meeting with Real Sociedad on Saturday, Zidane said Bale's future is in the player's hands.
"If one day he has to leave that is his decision, but what I can say about Gareth is today he is here with us, available and I am happy for the team," Zidane said.
"I consider that there have been lots of things, lots of noise about Gareth. As trainer, I concentrate on the football.
"He is an important player and has always showed us this."
Bale has helped Real to four Champions League triumphs since joining from Tottenham Hotspur in 2013, but his relationship with the club's fans has at times been strained.
Former Real striker and director of football Predrag Mijatovic said last month that Bale prioritised Wales and playing golf over his club.
That triggered a Wales fan to create the flag which Bale and his team-mates were pictured alongside as they celebrated sealing their place at Euro 2020.
Bale played in the crucial wins over Azerbaijan and Hungary despite not featuring for his club since the October international break because of injury, prompting further questions over his commitment to Real's cause.
Bale said the timing of his return to action was a coincidence - but admitted prior to the Azerbaijan game he felt "more excitement" playing for Wales than he does when on club duty.
Bale has two-and-a-half years to run on his contract in the Spanish capital.

Hi, I'm a final year student in civil engineering.
I need to measure the real and reactive power of a chiller in a company. There are three phases (3 wires) and currents up to 200A.
So I won't use the EmonTX (limited to 125A I think) but an Arduino, voltage and CT sensors.
As I didn't know anything about Arduino, I intended to use the code EmonLib.cpp. And that's the point of my question. Do you think it's a good way to proceed ? Can I use the code in its raw form?
In addition, I don't understand what are these calibrations, VCAL, etc, and how to determine it. Is it specific to EmonTX?
Thank you and sorry for the poor English. I tried to do it understandable
Re: Measure on a chiller
There is nothing to stop you using an emonTx - the input transducer (c.t. in this case) is the controlling factor. With a 200 A c.t. and appropriate burden, either the emonTx or the Arduino will do exactly the same job.
As you need real power across three phases, you have a problem. Normally, I would recommend the emonTx kit, as all you have to do is assemble it. But to measure real power you need the three phase voltages, and that's not part of the kit. However, it will be relatively easy to copy the voltage input two more times on stripboard and add two more voltage inputs.
If you don't want to do that, (and especially if the firm is paying), then I recommend you use three emonTx kits - one for each phase. You can stack them and use one as the master to control the other two. This post tells all. That method is also more likely to give you more accurate results because you can sample the waveforms often and measure continuously, whereas if you are measuring 6 values (3 x voltage, 3 x current) in one processor, either you measure the wave relatively infrequently or you must sample each phase in turn.
For c.t's, your best choice is a Magnelab split core 600 A SCT-1250-000. You need the 600 A version because they are designed for 0.333 V output and you want 1 V, so you will have a burden resistor 3 times larger and you'll need a c.t. 3 times more powerful (VA rating) to drive it. The ratio is 1:7500 so 200 A primary current will give 26.66 mA secondary current in the burden resistor, so 39 Ω looks to be right. (Magnelab have confirmed it's OK to do this.)
The calibration theory - how the constants are derived - is in Building Blocks here.
[Added] You might have a problem with sensing the voltage though. You will need either the neutral (i.e 4 wires which you say you do not have) or you must create an artificial star point in order to measure the phase voltages. I think you must talk to the electrician who maintains the electrical systems at the firm.


Uber’s London License is About To Expire
by Charlotte HenryUber’s London license expires on Monday, November 25th. However, Reuters reported that the firm does not yet know if it is going to be renewed.
Transport for London (TfL) rejected a renewal request in 2017 due to shortcomings it said it found in the firm’s approach to reporting serious criminal offences and driver background checks, prompting legal action. A judge in 2018 then granted Uber a probationary 15-month license, after the Silicon Valley-based company had made several changes to its business model. In September, TfL gave Uber just a two-month extension, far short of the maximum possible five years, and imposed further conditions covering ride-sharing, appropriate insurance and driver document checks.
