Segment Buffer Sample Clauses
The SEGMENT BUFFER clause establishes a reserved area or capacity within a system, process, or agreement to temporarily hold or manage segments—such as data packets, inventory units, or workflow items—before they proceed to the next stage. In practice, this buffer can be used to accommodate fluctuations in input or output rates, ensuring that temporary surges or delays do not disrupt overall operations. By providing this intermediary holding space, the clause helps maintain smooth and efficient processing, preventing bottlenecks and ensuring continuity even when there are short-term mismatches between supply and demand or processing speeds.
Segment Buffer. “Segment Buffer” means the maximum percentage decline in the performance of an Index during a Segment Duration that will be absorbed under the Contract with no resulting reduction in the Segment Maturity Value for a Segment held until its Segment Maturity Date. Any percentage decline in the Segment’s Index Performance Rate multiplied by the Participation Rate that is in excess of the Segment Buffer reduces your Segment Maturity Value.
