Abstract: Methods and systems for managing a wagering system may receive a stream of state information of a live sporting event in real time and determine initial and possible future states of a first performance parameter of the event based on the stream. After a beginning of the game and before the start of the event, a probability of occurrence is calculated for possible future states of the first performance parameter, based on historical data. During an initial state of the first performance parameter, a signal operative to open a first market for betting on the possible future states based on the probability of occurrence is transmitted. Before an end of the initial state, a signal operative to close the first market is transmitted, and then an outcome of the first performance parameter is determined based on the stream. Payouts of the first market are resolved based on the outcome.

The replacement fluid has pipetting characteristics substantially equivalent to the PCR Mastermix, wherein for a desired pipetted volume of the target fluid delivered by a pipette, a pipetted volume of the replacement fluid delivered by the pipette is substantially equivalent to the desired pipetted volume of the PCR Mastermix. The replacement fluid is a primary equivalent fluid having substantially similar pipetting characteristics. One or more additives may be added to the primary equivalent fluid. The one or more additives may include pipettability modifying additives and non pipettability modifying additives.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided herewith for managing a wagering system. In one exemplary embodiment, a stream of state information of a live sporting event is received in real time. A computer processor determines an initial state and a plurality of possible future states of a first performance parameter of the live sporting event based on the stream of state information. After a beginning of the game and before the start of the event, a probability of occurrence is calculated for at least one of the plurality of possible future states of the first performance parameter based on historical data related to the first performance parameter. The plurality of possible future states are mutually exclusive from one another. During an initial state of the first performance parameter, a signal operative to open a first market for betting on the at least one of the plurality of possible future states is transmitted. The first market comprises betting odds based on the calculated probability of occurrence.

Abstract: Methods and systems for tracking source code deployments are disclosed.

Abstract: For tracking a target, a method receives a first target signal reflected by a target for a first transmitter/receiver pair. The method receives a second target signal reflected by the target for a second transmitter/receiver pair or transmitter signal characteristics for a transmitter of the first transmitter/receiver pair. The method determines Doppler frequencies based on the first target signal and the second target signal or the transmitter signal characteristics. The method determines a target position and a target velocity vector for the target based on the Doppler frequencies.
