Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment Information
We report our segment information in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting.” These segments reflect the way our chief operating decision maker (CODM) evaluates our business performance, manages the operations, makes operating decisions, and allocates resources. The performance metric used by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate performance of our reportable segments is Adjusted Operating Income. Our segment reporting structure consists of three operating and reportable segments, which are listed below, as well as a Corporate expense category, which includes certain costs that are not allocated to the reportable segments:
Research

Held for Sale or Sold
