Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to systems/methods for low latency regulation of distributed, e.g., geographically and/or logically, transaction processing, such as trading of financial instruments, in accordance with centralized demand-based dynamically reallocated post-trade-based limits, e.g., credit/risk limits. In particular, the disclosed embodiments relate to monitoring credit demand across execution venues, as opposed to actual utilization, and, based thereon, modifying execution specific limits to reallocate of portions of a credit/risk allotment, such as a credit/risk limit, to multiple execution venues for use in approving transactions, which may implement order driven and/or quote driven markets, so as to dynamically rebalance the allocations to the execution venues based on demand/need, rather than utilization, thereby avoiding having to mitigate latencies in determining and responding to utilization.

Abstract: Systems are provided for compressing portfolios of open option positions. Market participants may provide constraints, such as net delta and gamma values within a specific tolerance. A compression engine uses a linear, integer and/or linear-quadratic programming solver to analyze portfolios of multiple market participants and identify multilateral option spread trades that result in portfolios that are compressed subject to the constraints.

Abstract: A data storage system for use with a multi-threaded processing system receives concurrent requests to store data to a common data store, and efficiently and securely swaps an active data store for a new data store while avoiding conflicts arising from multiple threads attempting to swap a same data store and minimizing reliance on operations that re-attempt actions upon failure of an attempted action, thereby improving performance of the data storage system and also the multi-threaded processing system.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to implementation of a trading system, which may also be referred to as a trading system architecture, having improved performance which further assures transactional determinism under increasing processing transaction loads while providing improved trading opportunities, fault tolerance, low latency processing, high volume capacity, risk mitigation and market protections with minimal impact, as well as improved and equitable access to information and opportunities.

Abstract: A computer implemented method for implementing a real time reconciling shared data structure is disclosed. The shared data structure may be stored in a memory, and a portion of the shared data structure may be coupled with a processor. The computer implemented method may be used for interacting with the shared data structure. The method may comprise the exchange of messages, requesting to change data in the shared data structure, between selected participants, wherein some of the participants must validate requested changes to the shared data. If all participants validate the requests to change data the changes to the data are made, and if less than all participants validate the requests then the changes are not made.

Abstract: A system includes a logic that generates a reduced-precision primary data object and an associated residual data object for each of a plurality of uncompressed data objects. The logic classifies the at least some of the generated residual data objects for removal based on data integrity rules and determines that removal of others of the generated residual data objects violates the data integrity rules. The logic removes the at least some of the generated residual data objects classified for removal and applies a corresponding adjustment to at least one of the generated residual data objects.

Abstract: A computer implemented method for assigning values to objects includes receiving a plurality of values for each of a plurality of base objects including a first and second base object; receiving a plurality of values for a first composite object associated with the first and second base objects; generating and storing in the memory a solution set including combinations of values of the first and second base objects; for each combination in the solution set, generating first transaction results by computing transactions between the values of the first and second base objects; comparing each of the first transaction results to a first range of values including the values of the first composite object; and removing, from the solution set and from the memory, the combinations of the values of the first and second base objects corresponding to the first transaction results that are outside of the first range of values.

Abstract: A computer implemented method for controlling operational states of a hardware matching processor includes monitoring, by a circuit breaker, incoming electronic data transaction request messages to the hardware matching processor; dynamically defining a range of values as a function of values included with electronic data transaction request messages received during a rolling lookback window; detecting that an incoming electronic data transaction request message contains a value outside the range of values; transitioning the electronic data transaction processing system into a pre-open state for a predetermined period, thereby preventing the hardware matching processor from matching incoming electronic data transaction request messages; calculating a pre-open value at an end of the pre-open state; and re-opening the electronic data transaction processing system at the calculated pre-open value, thereby allowing the hardware matching processor to match incoming electronic data transaction request messages.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to improving the efficiency of an electronic trading system for interest rate swaps (“IRS”) by allowing for IRS contracts to be funded in a base currency while the cash flows, e.g. coupon payments, price alignment interest, variation margin, are denominated in a local currency different from the base currency. Thereby cash flows may be netted and offset minimizing the magnitude of funds needed to be moved and reducing the number of transactions processed by the electronic trading system as well as the consumption of computational resources thereby. Furthermore, the disclosed embodiments facilitate entering into IRS transactions is a currency different from the currency of cash flows while eliminating Herstatt risk due to volatility of foreign exchange rates, which allows for increased off shore participation and thereby increased transaction volume.

Abstract: Disclosed are a system and method, also referred to herein as an architecture, for efficiently communicating a high volume of data from a server over an electronic communications network to geographically disperse recipients, where one or more of those recipients may receive a customized version of that data, e.g., content, timing and/or form. As the data is generated, timing information and/or changes to information regarding customizations is incorporated forming a data stream which is communicated to local data publishers (“LDP's”). Upon receipt, the LDP' s extract the data, customization, or timing information and act accordingly when transmitting the received data to the recipients. Customization is applied to update local control databases which specify the customizations for subsequently received data before transmission. By acting on the messages in real time, e.g.
