1. A method for evaluating an updated version of an analytical procedure in a monitoring system comprising a plurality of monitoring devices, wherein at least some monitoring devices of the plurality of monitoring devices are arranged to monitor similar environments, the method being characterized by:

identifying available processing resources in the monitoring system;

selecting a first monitoring device out of the plurality of monitoring devices for which available processing resources have been identified;

selecting a second monitoring device out of the plurality of monitoring devices;

acquiring monitoring data by the second monitoring device;

performing a current version of the analytical procedure on the monitoring data, thereby producing a first result;

sending the monitoring data to the first monitoring device;

performing, in the first monitoring device, an updated version of the analytical procedure on the monitoring data, thereby producing a second result;

calculating, based on the first result, a first performance value indicating a performance of the second monitoring device when performing the current version of the analytical procedure;

calculating, based on the second result, a second performance value indicating a performance of the first monitoring device when performing the updated version of the analytical procedure; and

evaluating the updated version of the analytical procedure based on a comparison between the first performance value and the second performance value.
