A tip baffle partially divides the tip plenum, being spaced from the rib by a baffle slot. The rib includes a tip slot in fluid communication with the baffle slot to provide a flow of cooling fluid along the tip of the airfoil for exhausting out the tip slot.

Abstract: A system is disclosed that enables a user to access a first piece of content on a first computing device while accessing a related, but different piece of content on a second computing device. In some cases, the different piece of content is a portion of the first piece of content. In some embodiments, the system can automatically identify complementary content and can automatically cause the second computing device to access the complementary content without the user interacting with the second computing device. In some cases, the system may reformat the complementary content for presentation to the user based on characteristics of the second computing device.

Abstract: A storage area network (SAN)-attached storage system architecture is disclosed. The storage system provides strongly consistent distributed storage communication protocol semantics, such as SCSI target semantics. The system includes a mechanism for presenting a single distributed logical unit, comprising one or more logical sub-units, as a single logical unit of storage to a host system by associating each of the logical sub-units that make up the single distributed logical unit with a single host visible identifier that corresponds to the single distributed logical unit. The system further includes mechanisms to maintain consistent context information for each of the logical sub-units such that the logical sub-units are not visible to a host system as separate entities from the single distributed logical unit.

Abstract: Aspects of expanded icon navigation are described. In one example, the hierarchical structure of a network site accessible over a computer network is indexed to generate an indexed zone hierarchy of the network site. Access across the indexed zone hierarchy of the network site is monitored to assemble a collection of accessed resources on the network site. A resource at the network site is registered as a marked resource, and a marked resource anchor associated with the marked resource is generated. A number of branches of the marked resource anchor are them populated for the network site based on the indexed zone hierarchy of the network site, the marked resource, and the collection of accessed resources.

Abstract: Techniques and solutions for provided for generating web content magazines. For example, a web content magazine can be generated by obtaining a user-specific interest model for a particular user, determining a reading time period, obtain web content that can be read by the user within the reading time period, processing the obtained web content to generate a web content magazine, and providing the web content magazine for display. The web content magazine can contain an amount of content that can be read by the user within the reading time period according to the user's reading speed.

Abstract: A system is configured to receive a network resource request from a user device configured with a browsing application, wherein the request includes identification data associated with the user device. The system transmits, to a network resource provider, a request for the network resource, wherein the request transmitted to the network resource provider excludes identification data included in the request received from the user device. The system receives from the network resource provider a response, including a document comprising a field configured to receive payment information for an item purchase. The system receives from the browsing application an indication that an anonymous payment instrument, associated with a first entity different than the user, is to be used to purchase a first item at a first price. The system causes information regarding the anonymous payment instrument to be provided to the network resource provider.

Abstract: Content inspection and analysis are described. A server stores a definition of sets of browser policies. A definition of one or more sets of users is stored. The server stores an association with a respective set of browser policies for the one or more sets of users. A request is received from a client browser associated with a user, wherein the client browser is configured to communicate with the server. The server determines which set of users the user is associated with. The server identifies a first set of browser policies that is associated with the determined set of users and applies the identified first set of browser policies to the request.

Abstract: Approaches enable three-dimensional (3D) display and interaction with interfaces (such as a webpage, an application, etc.) when the device is operating in a 3D view mode. For example, interface elements can be highlighted, emphasized, animated, or otherwise altered in appearance, and/or arrangement in the renderings of those interfaces based at least in part on an orientation of the device or a position of a user using the device. Further, the 3D view mode can provide for an animated 3D departure and appearance of elements as the device navigates from a current page to a new page. Further still, approaches provide for the ability to specify 3D attributes (such as the appearance, action, etc.) of the interface elements. In this way, a developer of such interfaces can use information (e.g., tags, CSS, JavaScript, etc.) to specify a 3D appearance change to be applied to at least one interface element when the 3D view mode is activated.

Abstract: A system for controlling an operation of a combustor in a gas turbine that includes: an acoustic sensor configured to periodically measure a pressure of the combustor and generate a raw data stream having the pressure data points resulting from the periodic measurements; and a blowout detection unit configured to receive the raw data stream from the acoustic sensor. The blowout detection unit may include a processor and a machine-readable storage medium on which is stored instructions that cause the processor to execute a procedure related to a detection of a blowout precursor. The procedure may include an ensemble approach in which the detection of the blowout precursor depends upon a outcomes generated respectively by separate detection analytics.

Abstract: A system and process are disclosed for providing users with page previews during page loading events, such that the delay experienced before the display of page content is reduced. The previews may include screenshots of the pages or of portions thereof, and may be generated periodically and cached by the system for delivery to user devices. The process of generating and delivering the previews via the Internet or some other network may be implemented partly or wholly within an intermediary system that sits logically between the user devices and content servers. The process may be used with existing browsers without the need for any browser modifications, or may be used with a “preview-aware” browser that includes special program code for providing page previews.

Abstract: A system and method for transmitting data over a channel, in which the data are categorized in at least two different categories. For example, the data are categorized according to the effect on perceived degradation on the data when error mitigation is performed on the data. Corrupted data of the first category are replaced using a first replacement method, such as retransmission and forward error correction. The corrupted data of the second category are replaced using a second replacement method different from the first replacement method, e.g., error mitigation or interpolation.

Abstract: An analytical system and method periodically monitoring an injection water distribution pipeline for the presence and concentration of formaldehyde or other aldehyde-functional biocide includes pumps, one of which provides a predetermined volume of injection water drawn from the pipeline at a sampling point and the other a predetermined volume of a reagent, preferably a buffered solution of dimedone, from a reagent storage vessel which are mixed and then heated in a chamber to a predetermined temperature to promote formation of any reaction products. The heated reaction mixture is passed to a detection cell and exposed to light of predetermined wavelength which, in accordance with the Hantzsch reaction, molecules having an aldehyde functional group that reacted with dimedone produce a fluorescence-emitting reaction product, the intensity of which is measured and compared to data previously obtained from standard aldehyde-containing solutions.
