Abstract:
An adjustable seal and method for varying a radial distance between the adjustable seal and a rotor of a turbomachine are provided. The adjustable seal may include a first annular member defining a plurality of radial channels, and a second annular member defining a plurality of slots at least partially extending therethrough. The second annular member may be concentric with the first annular member and configured to rotate relative to the first annular member. The adjustable seal may also include a plurality of seal segments interposed between the first annular member and the second annular member. Each seal segment of the plurality of seal segments may be slidably disposed in a respective radial channel of the plurality of radial channels and may have an axial projection slidably disposed in a respective slot of the plurality of slots.
Abstract:
A circuit for tracking the minimum and maximum duration of an event of interest is described. The circuit is connected to a counter for counting a number of clock cycles that the event of interest is active and comprises logic for detecting deactivation of the event of interest and generating a duration end signal; logic responsive to the duration end signal for comparing a count value with a shadow value; and logic for updating the shadow value based on results of the comparing.
Abstract:
One disclosed embodiment may comprise a system that includes a qualification system that qualifies data on an associated bus for capture and provides a qualification signal as a function of at least one signal that describes a characteristic of the data on the associated bus. A data capture system stores qualified data from the associated bus based on the qualification signal and a trigger signal, the trigger signal defining a capture session.

Abstract:
An edge detect circuit connected to a bus carrying data is described. In one embodiment, the edge detect circuit comprises logic for detecting an edge of a raw increment signal and logic for activating an increment signal upon detection of an edge of the raw increment signal.
Abstract:
Video transaction machines (VTMs) facilitate communications and transactions between customers of a financial institution and video transaction resources, such as video agents, by establishing a video session between a VTM and a video agent workstation. After a computing device of the financial institution receives information identifying the customer, VTM, or VTM location requesting the services of a video agent, the computing device may place the customer in one or more virtual queues based on an overall visit time at the VTM location. In order to maintain a visit time at the VTM location below a predetermined visit time threshold, the controller may prioritize transactions at VTMs with longer visit times over transactions at VTMs with shorter visit times.
Abstract:
One disclosed embodiment may comprise a system that includes a data capture system that stores a set of data from an associated data source in response to a store signal while enabled based on a control signal. A control system provides the control signal based on a number of store cycles relative to an event to define the set of data, the number of store cycles varying based on the store signal.
Abstract:
A logic circuit for delaying a signal input thereto by a number of clock cycles X is described. In one embodiment, the logic circuit comprises a demultiplexer (“DEMUX”) which includes an input for receiving the signal and N outputs; a register array comprising at least X registers, wherein each of the N outputs of the DEMUX is connected to a corresponding one of the X registers; and a multiplexer (“MUX”) comprising M inputs, wherein each of the M inputs is connected to one of the registers.
Abstract:
A system for validating data collected in a first clock domain. A performance counter is disposed in a second clock domain to perform performance computations relative to the data. Validation circuitry is in communication with the data in order to provide to the performance counter a validation signal indicative of the validity of the data.
