Stephen J. Lyons has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11221365
    Abstract: An example test system includes a device interface board (DIB) having one or more signal transmission paths and an interface for connecting to one or more other components of the test system. Test circuitry is configured to inject test signals into the one or more signal transmission paths and to measure transmitted versions of the test signals at the interface to obtain measurement signals. One or more processing devices are configured to generate calibration factors based on differences between the injected test signals and the measurement signals, and to store the calibration factors in computer memory. The calibration factors are for correcting for effects on the test signals of the one or more signal transmission paths.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9396234
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for an event monitoring tool configured for complex event processing (CEP). In one embodiment, a data processing system can include a CEP event monitoring tool configured for coupling to touch points over a network and a repository of a log of events occurring in the touch points. A dashboard can be displayed by the tool and can include a canvas view of events, associated interaction blocks each including filter criteria for associated events, and at least one activity triggered by an evaluation of at least one of the filter criteria in at least one of the interaction blocks for a corresponding one of the touch points. The canvas view further can include visual links between the events and the associated interaction blocks and between the activity and an interaction block amongst the interaction blocks triggering the activity.
