Abstract: A big data sampling system indexed by at least one key and including a big data table comprising complete historical data corresponding to at least one financial instrument, a query table indexed by a query identifier associated with each of the at least one financial instrument and including references to the complete historical data of the big data table, and an inner join corresponding to the query table and the big data table. The inner join takes in a sample of the complete historical data corresponding to an input query. The sample is extracted by byte range download from a file server and is associated with the query identifier of the query table. The sample corresponds with the complete historical data of the at least one financial instrument. An output of the inner join identifies the complete historical data of the financial instrument in response to the query.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device for digital signature of an electronic document by means of a signature creation unit, protected against manipulation, and especially portable and card-like, which is provided for cooperation with a data processing unit offering the electronic document for signature and receiving the digital signature, and which is formed for deposit of a secrete, access-protected private signature encryption, where by the effect of a signature processor unit of the signature creation unit the digital signature on the basis of a signage string characteristic for the electronic document as well as the private digital signature encryption can be created, where the signature creation unit has an output unit, which is associated with it and which is not influenced by the data processing unit, for providing an output signal for a user of the data processing unit, where an input unit is associated with the signature creation unit, which can be confirmed by the user, and where the signature creation u

Abstract: The invention pertains to an apparatus for the client-sided receiving, transmitting, delivering, representing, outputting and displaying of server-sided stored data by means of unambiguous or unique content signatures, which together with additional data, are stored on the server-side. Server-sided additional data are called via this content signature on the server-side by a client-sided program. Additional data are displayed on the client-side and can be used as hyperlinks for further searches or linking. Further additional data can be inserted on the client-side by creators related to content signatures, which are transmitted to the server and stored on the server-side. Via the assignment of predetermined category names, server-sided additional assignments can be defined for category terms and upon client requests, after which it is sent to the client.
