Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to regulation of a rate of incoming orders by buffering or otherwise batching orders together as they are received and subsequently forwarding batches of orders to a match engine for processing thereby in a manner which may equalize orders from traders having varying abilities to rapid submit orders or otherwise capitalize on market events. The disclosed embodiments further relate to prioritizing the matching of resting orders against an incoming order. In particular, the disclosed embodiments alter the priority of a given resting order to match against an incoming order, relative to other suitably matching resting orders, as a function of how long the orders have been resting on the order book.

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: A string release for providing accurate release of a tensioned bow string. The release has a pair of jaws which are retained and controlled by a pivot ball and a jaw cup. The pivot ball being mounted on a shaft which is attached to an inner race which is in turn contained within a ball housing. The inner race is positioned such that it may slide laterally within the ball housing. In the closed position, a number of balls retain the inner race in an aft position relative to the jaws. A trigger mechanism actuates a locking sleeve which allows the balls to move such that the inner race may slide forward, thereby allowing the jaw to open. The release further includes a trigger force adjusting mechanism that allows adjustment of the force required to activate the trigger mechanism.

Abstract: An adjustable trigger pressure archery release including a bayonet mounted trigger utilizing an actuator ramp to reduce trigger travel. The caliper jaws and cam profile combine to create an automatic closing action to close the release, whereby rearward pulling or squeezing movement of the trigger engages the caliper jaws to an open bow string or string loop apparatus receiving condition, and relaxing or releasing movement of the trigger closes the caliper jaws into a string retaining position. The release includes an independent mechanism for permitting adjustment of the trigger pressure force, without affecting trigger travel including frictional means of maintaining selected setting. The release head is universally adjustable or lockable relative to a wrist strap or similar mounting.
