Abstract: A structure for damping at a fluid manifold assembly for an engine is generally provided. The fluid manifold assembly includes a first walled conduit defining a first fluid passage therewithin. A flow of fluid defining a first frequency is permitted through the first fluid passage. A second walled conduit includes a pair of first portions each coupled to the first walled conduit. A second portion is coupled to the pair of first portions. A second fluid passage is defined through the first portion and the second portion in fluid communication with the first fluid passage. The flow of fluid is permitted through the second fluid passage at a second frequency approximately 180 degrees out of phase from the first frequency.

Abstract: A detachable component of a wearable medical device in accordance with an embodiment of the present technology includes a housing and a latch operably associated with the housing. The latch includes a cam having a first position at which the cam projects outwardly from the housing, a second position at which the cam is shifted inwardly relative to the first position, and a third position at which the cam is shifted inwardly relative to the second position. The cam is resiliently biased from the second position toward the first position. Fully actuating the cam moves the cam from the first position to the second position. The detachable component further includes a handle accessible from outside the housing. The handle is movable in an actuating direction to move the cam from the first or second position to the third position.

Abstract: Provided is a controller for dynamically balancing load between different servers using different thresholds that are continually modified for each of the servers. The controller may generate a baseline load measure based on load measures received from the different servers, and may configure a first threshold for a first server and a second threshold for a second server based on the load measure at the first server deviating from the baseline load measure by a first amount that is greater than a second amount by which the load measure at the second server deviates from the baseline load measure. The controller may allocate an additional server to distribute first content with the first server in response to first content load at the first server satisfying the first threshold and the same load or a greater load of second content at the second server not satisfying the second threshold.

Abstract: A method of certifying compliance with a protocol to generate a verifiable and secure credential to access a trusted network includes selecting a first protocol for which certification is requested on behalf of an entity; generating a set of compliance questions for the first protocol corresponding to elements of at least one protocol including the first protocol; identifying protocols other than the first protocol with which the user is currently certified; mapping elements of the other protocols with elements of the first protocol; crediting the entity for satisfied elements in a credit transcript based on the map; presenting the user the questions corresponding to unsatisfied elements and question data corresponding to the questions; allowing the user to navigate the questions and store responses in the credit transcript; automatically auditing the credit transcript to determine eligibility for at least one credential corresponding to the first protocol; generating a scorecard for the entity based on at le

Abstract: A Multi-Threaded Indexed (“MTI”) file system may use a first set of threads, processes, or executable instances to index desired file attributes in a database while simultaneously but independently executing file operations with a second set of threads, processes, or executable instances. In response to receiving a file operation, the second set of threads, processes, or executable instance may query the database to directly identify files that are indirectly implicated by the file operation with a wildcard, regular expression, and/or other expression that indirectly identifies the files based on different file attributes, paths, name expressions, or combinations thereof. The second set of threads, processes, or executable instances are therefore able to identify the files implicated by the file operation based solely on the indexed file attributes already entered in the database without the need to load and scan the metadata of files in directories targeted by the file operation.

Abstract: The embodiments provide peer cache filling. The peer cache filling allocates a set of caching servers to distribute content in response to user requests with a limited first subset of the set of servers having access to retrieve the content from an origin and with a larger second subset of the set of servers retrieving the content from the first subset of servers without accessing the origin. The peer cache filling dynamically escalates and deescalates the allocation of the caching servers to the first and second subsets as demand for the content rises and falls. Peer cache filling is implemented by modifying request headers to identify designated hot content, provide a request identifier hash result for identifying the ordering of servers, and provide a value for designating which servers in the ordering as primary server with access to the origin.

Abstract: Asynchronous file tracking may include a first process that adds files to a cache and that generates different instances of a tracking file to track the files as they are entered into the cache. A second process, executing on the device, asynchronously accesses one or more instances of the tracking file at a different rate than the first process generates the tracking file instances. The second process may update a record of cached files based on a set of entries from each of the different instances of the tracking file accessed by the second process. Each set of entries may identify a different set of files that are cached by the device. The second process may then purge one or more cached files that satisfy eviction criteria while the first process continues to asynchronously add files to the cache and create new instances to track the newly cached files.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for performing consistent request distribution across a set of servers based on a request Uniform Resource Locator (URL) and one or more cache keys, wherein some but not all cache keys modify the content requested by the URL. The cache keys include query string parameters and header parameters. A request director parses a received request, excludes irrelevant cache keys, reorders relevant cache keys, and distributes the request to a server from the set of servers tasked with serving content differentiated from the request URL by the relevant cache keys. The exclusion and reordering preserves the consistent distribution of requests directed to the same URL but different content as a result of different cache key irrespective of the placement of the relevant cache keys and inclusion of irrelevant cache keys in the request.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a sealing system for a turbine engine including an engine component, the engine component defining an oblique sealing surface defining an annular shape. The oblique sealing surface defines an oblique angle with a centerline of the engine component. The sealing system includes a seal housing and a seal ring. The seal housing is annular and includes a groove that is defined by a first sidewall, a second sidewall, and an end wall connecting the first sidewall and the second sidewall. The seal ring is positioned at least partially within the groove in the seal housing. The seal ring defines a seal contact surface for forming a seal with the oblique sealing surface of the engine component.
