    Abstract: Credit card applications typically involve the help of a third party to input the necessary data required by a credit card issuing agency. Using the present invention, a customer at a fuel dispenser can complete a credit card application and have it approved or denied in a quick and easy transaction, without the need of assistance from a third party. All required data at the fuel dispenser is entered through a user interface which includes card swipe inputs and numeric inputs through a numeric key pad. The customer does not make any alphabetical inputs on a typical keyboard because fuel dispensers do not have keyboards.

    Abstract: A method of recovery timing information and a clock recovery system for digital data signals are described, in which a digital data signal is assessed to determine the occurrence of a peak in part of the signal and the suitability of that peak for providing timing information. In the clock recovery systems described a peak evaluator has a maximum peak detector for determining the maximum oversampled value in a symbol period and the sampling point at which that maximum occurred, and peak score calculator for establishing a measure of the suitability of the peak by assessing the gradients of parts of the peak. The peak score associated with a maximum in the signal is compared with a similarly established minimum peak score by a comparator and the larger provided to a switch which, if the selected score exceeds a threshold, updates a phase lock loop, with the sampling point at which that peak occurred.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for controlling an engine in a vehicle. One example method includes, after a threshold duration of engine idling, continuing engine idle operation when an exhaust NOx sensor indicates a NOx level below a NOx threshold, and stopping engine idle and shutting down the engine when the exhaust NOx sensor indicates the NOx level is above the NOx threshold. In this way, when the exhaust emissions are below the NOx threshold, it is possible to prolong engine idling operation using the exhaust NOx sensor.

    Abstract: A system and method for controlling an engine control an EGR cooler bypass valve to divert at least a portion of EGR flow around an EGR cooler when operating under cooler fouling/plugging conditions, such as during idle, off-idle, exhaust system warm up and DPF regeneration or other post injection operation with EGR gas temperature below a corresponding threshold or with EGR low-temperature coolant temperature below a corresponding threshold. The system and method reduce exhaust gases passing through the EGR cooler that contain a high concentration of unburned or partially unburned fuel when the temperature in the EGR system is lower than the fuel condensation temperature.
