  • Publication number: 20200402170
    Abstract: Message processing is described, in which each of first and second computer systems have a message operator configured to process messages to manage a data structure having a state determined via the processing. The message operator of the first computer system is configured to reroute unprocessed messages to the message operator of the second computer system such that the message operator of the second computer system establishes an order of an input message stream and a current state of the data structure arising from the input message stream. The message operator of the second computer system is configured to, once the current state is established, send the messages of the input message stream to the message operator of the first computer system in accordance with the established order such that the current state of data structure is recreated by the message operator of the first computer system.

  • Publication number: 20200402169
    Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling use of a credit pool in connection with electronic trading in a plurality of product groups via a set of match engines are described. Credit data indicative of a current magnitude of the credit pool is obtained. A plurality of allocations of the credit pool are determined, based on the credit pool, across the plurality of product groups. For each allocation of the plurality of allocations, allocation data indicative of the allocation is provided to a respective credit controller of a set of credit controllers. The respective credit controller is disposed at a respective match engine to which a respective product group of the plurality of product groups is assigned. The use of the credit pool for an incoming order in a respective product group is thus limited in accordance with the allocation data provided to the credit controller at the respective match engine.

  • Patent number: 10162689
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to regulation of receipt, rate or volume, and processing of messages, such as order, mass quote or other trade related messages by available trading system resources to minimize congestion, maximize efficient use, minimize unfair monopolization and ensure fair access to/allocation thereof. The disclosed embodiments may act as a governor limiting the maximum rate of message submission to the rate at which the submitted messages can be processed. In particular, the number of concurrent, i.e. received/accepted but not yet completed/processed/responded to, messages may be limited. As long as the limit is not exceeded, i.e. the rate of completion/processing meets or exceeds the receipt rate, no interruption may be imposed. However, once the limit is reached, subsequently received messages may be buffered or otherwise dropped. In this way, the limit may define the extent to which incoming messages may consume the concurrent processing capacity, or allocated portion thereof.
