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: The disclosed embodiments relate to communication of messages from a database to participants whereby messages, or at least a portion of the content thereof, indicative of changes in the database, due to one or more transactions between two or more participants, are structured so as to reduce redundant data therein and prioritize the transmission of that portion of the message which summarizes the event and result thereof. Further, these event reporting messages may further consolidate, or otherwise be combined with, the corresponding directed reporting messages communicated to the particular participants participating in the reported transaction while preserving the anonymity of those participants to which messages are particularly directed.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to creation and dissemination of unique identifiers, i.e. tokens, for use in communication of messages from a transaction processing system, to participants therein whereby messages, or at least a portion of the content thereof, indicative of a response to a request, to transact or modify a prior transaction, are consolidated, or otherwise combined, with the corresponding directed reporting messages communicated to the particular participants participating in the reported transaction while preserving the anonymity of those participants to which messages are particularly directed. The identifiers are structured so as to facilitate rapid validation and dissemination while eliminating the ability to associate any given identifier, or set thereof, with a participant.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to communication of financial messages from an exchange to market participants whereby messages, or at least a portion of the content thereof, indicative of changes in the market, due to one or more trades between two or more market participants, are structured so as to reduce redundant data therein and prioritize the transmission of that portion of the message which summarizes the event and result thereof. Further, these event reporting messages may further consolidate, or otherwise be combined with, the corresponding directed reporting messages communicated to the particular market participants participating in the reported trade while preserving the anonymity of those market participants to which messages are particularly directed.

Abstract: A method for generating a prediction of a latency of a transaction processing system includes: sampling a first plurality of messages from a database that stores data indicative of messages previously processed by the transaction processing system including a characteristic and a processing time of each previously processed message; generating latency tables based upon the characteristics and the processing times of the sampled first plurality of messages; determining a characteristic of each of a second plurality of messages being processed by the transaction processing system; selecting, for each of the second plurality of messages, a latency table from the plurality of latency tables based upon the respective determined characteristic; simulating a processing time for each of the second plurality of messages based upon the respective selected latency table; and generating a latency prediction for the transaction processing system based upon the simulated processing times for the second plurality of message

Abstract: Systems and methods for measuring and indicating brush head life are disclosed. In one embodiment, the system includes a brush head that moves with respect to a brush handle; an energy harvester that generates electrical signals based on movements of the brush head; a controller in electrical communication with the energy harvester; and an indicator in electrical communication with the controller. The indicator is energized based on a signal from the controller.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems for communicating market data with market participants involve obfuscating at least a portion of a first financial message. Communicating the market data also involves augmenting a second financial message with a key configured to remove the obfuscation from the obfuscated portion of the first financial message. The market data is ultimately communicated by transmitting the first financial message to a particular participant, and transmitting the second message to a plurality of participants. The particular participant may then use the key from the second financial message to remove the obfuscation of the first financial message.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining implied spreads are provided. More particularly, implied spread financial transactions are generated using information from requests for quotes (RFQs). An RFQ processor module may focus the calculations performed by an implied spread determination module. A financial instrument associated with an RFQ may be provided to the implied spread determination module to trigger the determination of whether implied orders exist related to that particular financial instrument.
