| 20100017647 | MATCH SERVER FOR A FINANCIAL EXCHANGE HAVING FAULT TOLERANT OPERATION - Fault tolerant operation is disclosed for a primary match server of a financial exchange using an active copy-cat instance, a.k.a. backup match server, that mirrors operations in the primary match server, but only after those operations have successfully completed in the primary match server. Fault tolerant logic monitors inputs and outputs of the primary match server and gates those inputs to the backup match server once a given input has been processed. The outputs of the backup match server are then compared with the outputs of the primary match server to ensure correct operation. The disclosed embodiments further relate to fault tolerant failover mechanism allowing the backup match server to take over for the primary match server in a fault situation wherein the primary and backup match servers are loosely coupled, i.e. they need not be aware that they are operating in a fault tolerant environment. As such, the primary match server need not be specifically designed or programmed to interact with the fault tolerant mechanisms. Instead, the primary match server need only be designed to adhere to specific basic operating guidelines and shut itself down when it cannot do so. By externally controlling the ability of the primary match server to successfully adhere to its operating guidelines, the fault tolerant mechanisms of the disclosed embodiments can recognize error conditions and easily failover from the primary match server to the backup match server. | 01-21-2010 |

| 20100017321 | Adaptive Implied Spread Matching - Systems and methods for determining implied spreads are provided. An example includes receiving a new order for a financial instrument and determining if the new order in combination with pending orders creates an implied spread. The implied spread may be submitted with information to facilitate matching the legs of the implied spread using the new order. The detection of the implied spread may be performed outside of a match engine; thus, permitting the detection to occur in parallel and apart from the operation of the match engine. | 01-21-2010 |

| 20110249837 | HEARING ASSISTANCE DEVICE WITH PROGRAMMABLE DIRECT AUDIO INPUT PORT - Disclosed herein, among other things, are apparatus and methods to detect signals connected to a direct audio input port of a hearing assistance device. According to one embodiment, a hearing assistance device includes a processor and a direct audio input (DAI) port including a signal line connected to the processor. The DAI port is configured to connect to an external device, and the processor is programmed to detect audio signals of interest on the signal line and to process the audio signals of interest when detected as programmed. Other embodiments are possible without departing from the scope of the present subject matter. | 10-13-2011 |

| 20120096719 | Rotary Cutter - Embodiments according to the present invention provide improved rotary cutters and associated methods. A cutter includes a handle coupled to a plurality of rotary cutting elements which may be rotatable substantially within the same plane, within closely spaced parallel planes, or within intersecting planes, wherein the intersection of such planes occurs substantially tangential to the rotary cutting elements. The rotary cutting elements are preferably different sized and preferably becoming smaller distally from the handle. A method includes cutting an article with a plurality of rotary blades with a single motion of a human hand and/or arm. Such article may be, for example, a food article, such as pizza, or a textile article, such as leather, vinyl, or even gypsum board. | 04-26-2012 |

| 20090007748 | MOTORIZED SAW AND CLAMPING ELEMENT - A motorized saw has a guide rail which is arranged on at least one clamping stud and can be clamped in place between two bearing surfaces by clamping means. A clamping element is provided which is arranged on the clamping stud and in a locating opening of the guide rail and which fixes the guide rail in at least one radial direction of the clamping stud in the clamped state. A clamping element has at least one clamping surface which is formed at an end face of the clamping element and which encloses an angle of less than 90° with the longitudinal center axis of an opening of the clamping element. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20110010952 | Guide Bar for the Saw Chain of a Power Saw - A guide bar for the saw chain of a power saw, including an elongated, planar main body having an outer periphery that is provided with a guide groove for guiding a saw chain. A direction-changing section is disposed at a free end of the guide bar and includes two side plates. At least one rivet is provided for securing the side plates to the main body, with the rivet extending through an opening in the main body. On at least one side of the main body, the opening is provided with a flared depression for receiving an adjacent element. | 01-20-2011 |
