  • Publication number: 20250297971
    Abstract: X-ray systems, including apparatus, methods, and medium-encoded computer program products, to obtain computed tomography scan data (e.g., for limited angle computed tomography) include: a stationary X-ray source; and at least one detector configured to obtain limited angle computed tomography scan data of an object, the limited angle computed tomography scan data including projections of the X-rays after interaction with the object having been moved through an angular range with respect to at least one straight line between the stationary X-ray source and the at least one detector, and a conveyor system moves the object in a product handling line, a component of the conveyor system rotates the object around an axis that is normal or oblique to a travel direction of the conveyor system, and the scan data includes the projections of the X-rays after the interaction with the object having been rotated through the angular range around the axis.

  • Patent number: 10366454
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for processing derivative product orders at an exchange. Traders provide derivative product order risk data to the exchange. The order risk data may include maximum delta, gamma and/or vega utilization values for derivative product contracts based on the same underlying product. Before executing a trade, a match system analyzes the trader's current utilization state and the utilization that would result after the trade. The match system may then execute all or a portion of the trade.

  • Patent number: 10217165
    Abstract: Methods and systems for an exchange to handle variable derivative product order prices are disclosed. The price of a derivative product order (bid or offer) is updated based on changes in the price of a related underlying product. Price determination variable(s), such as delta and gamma, are used to determine the price of the order. The exchange may periodically recalculate the price without requiring the trader to transmit additional information to the exchange.

  • Publication number: 20160168708
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a component includes providing a component machined or forged from an air-hardenable steel, and placing the component in a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) processing chamber. The method may include controlling the pressure within the processing chamber to a pressure that is below atmospheric pressure, inducting feedstock gases into the processing chamber, and increasing the temperature inside the processing chamber to a coating temperature at which one or more volatile precursors from the feedstock gases react on the surface of the component to produce a thin film coating. The temperature in the processing chamber may be maintained at the coating temperature for a period of time that includes at least one of a period of time before, during, and after the thin film coating is produced in order to austenitize the material of the component.

  • Patent number: 8751361
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for executing a hedge transaction in connection with the execution of a derivative product order in which the price of the derivative product is defined by one or more variables. The hedge transaction may be executed at an exchange or match engine that is different from the exchange or match engine executing the derivative product order. The execution of derivative product transaction may be contingent on the existence of an appropriate hedge transaction. Alternatively, a best efforts approach may be used to fill the hedge transaction order after executing the derivative product transaction.
