Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for automatically configuring financial product offerings. An example method includes: receiving, by a computer system, a graph model representing a plurality of permutations of definition provisions of a financial product; translating at least a subset of the graph model into definitions of a plurality of business objects; translating the definitions of the plurality of business objects into definitions of a plurality of services to be implemented by an offering of the financial product; receiving, via a user interface, a plurality of service configuration options; applying the plurality of service configuration options to the definitions of the plurality of services; and generating, based on the definitions of the plurality of services, service configuration data for the offering of the financial product.

Abstract: A method of dynamically generating a graphic includes receiving, at a vector graphics engine loaded on a server system, graphic template input; receiving, at the vector graphics engine loaded on the server system, data template input; and generating, at the server system, code in a standard format representative of a vector graphic. The generating includes identifying a special tag associated with the vector graphics engine, converting code associated with this tag from a first format associated with the vector graphics engine to a second standardized format, and binding data content based on the received data template input to graphic content based on the received graphic template input.

Abstract: A method of reciprocally publishing and matching data files is disclosed. The method includes facilitating the creation of Category A and Category B data files having a respective sets of characteristics defined utilizing a common language architecture, associating enhancement objects with each data file, identifying characteristics in each data file which must be met by other data files, weighting characteristics in each data file differently from other characteristics in the same data file, enabling the selection of participation levels for each data file in marketspaces, and matching Category A data files participating in particular marketspaces to Category B data files participating in the same marketspaces using the common language architecture, the enhancement objects, the weights and the required characteristics.

Abstract: Apparatus for interactive display of any portion of a spherical image preferably comprises a personal computer or other digital processor apparatus for storing digital data representative of at least one image having a 180 degree or greater field of view (or hemispherical image). In order to view a selected image portion without warp or distortion at the seam between opposite hemispherical images, edge filtering is applied to eliminate a halo effect. Moreover, an opposite hemispherical image may either be obtained by creating a mirror image of a first hemispherical image or by capturing a second hemispherical image by means of an oppositely directed camera and storing the digital image. Equations for image transformation are based on a lens' characteristics including the lens' radius R. An input interface preferably comprises a display including a magnification region and a directional cursor for pointing the direction to a next spherical image.
