  • Publication number: 20130006799
    Abstract: Embodiments of the instant invention are directed to a domain management system, apparatus and method for hosting and assigning domain names. Embodiments of the domain management system comprise a name assignment system and a hosting system, wherein the hosting system comprises a domain retrieval system and a data storage apparatus. The name assignment system verifies availability and assigns domain names to requesting clients. The name assignment system comprises an input component, a confirmation mechanism and a name storage means. Preferred embodiments of the domain retrieval system comprise a scheduler, a parsing member having a plurality of redirectors and a plurality of servers. The domain retrieval system locates the domain referenced by the domain name by parsing header information and utilizing a wildcard DNS. Once the domain is located, the domain retrieval system forwards the domain to the user computer.

  • Patent number: 8332299
    Abstract: Various embodiments provide a system for enforcing investment policies created by an account owner. An investment policy tool may receive account data from an account database, including a portfolio and a policy, and a transaction generated by a trader for the account from a trading system. The investment policy tool may use the portfolio and the transaction to generate a speculative portfolio. The transaction and the speculative portfolio may be compared with the policy, to determine if either the transaction or the speculative portfolio violates any elements of the policy. If the investment policy tool determines that the policy has been violated, the investment policy tool may stop the transaction, stop the transaction and notify the account owner of the violation, hold the transaction and request approval from the account owner, or allow the transaction to proceed and notify the account owner of the violation.
