Abstract: A system may control a mass spectrometer to acquire, during a plurality of acquisitions constituting an acquisition cycle, a set of mass spectra of product ions derived from precursor ions isolated based on a parallel isolation window successively positioned throughout a precursor mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) range. The precursor m/z range is divided into a plurality of isolation window units. The parallel isolation window includes, for each acquisition of the acquisition cycle, a set of isolation sub-windows corresponding to a distinct set of isolation window units of the precursor m/z range. At least two adjacent isolation sub-windows of the parallel isolation window are non-contiguous. Each isolation window unit of the precursor m/z range is analyzed at least twice during the acquisition cycle. A mass spectrum for the precursor m/z range may be generated based on the set of mass spectra acquired during the acquisition cycle.

Abstract: The invention relates to systems and methods for distributing encrypted market data updates to market participants via private multicast channels. Among other factors, characteristics of modern computer networks may cause participants to be sent (and to receive) their encrypted data for that update at different times. Thus, after the participants have all been sent their data for that update the system may then simultaneously transmit to those participants the key that will enable them to decipher their data via a public multicast channel such that all recipients receive the key at the same time. In this manner the invention may ensure that although participants receive their data in a given update at different times, they are unable to decipher that data until substantially the same time.

Abstract: An intersystems communication system and method provides a technical solution to communicate messages between multiple systems by transmitting payload data that is indeterminate from any data in the message. Transmitting data that is indeterminate from any data in the message can be very efficient by, for example, utilizing less bandwidth. In at least one embodiment, the messages include a message identifier (ID), such as a unique integer, that is associated with a specific format specification. The specific format specification includes a payload data structure definition mapped to the message ID. Thus, by linking the message ID to the specific format specification, the indeterminate data can be interpreted.
