Abstract: Disclosed herein are secure transaction systems having secure elements that are initialized and activated independent from each other. The secure element is first initialized to make the secure element turn to a state in which the secure element can be packaged, sold within retail stores, and then injected with encryption keys. The initialization process of the secure element formulates the secure element to ensure trust between the secure elements and secure element activation servers. The process of independently initializing and activating the secure elements while still addressing the security protocols allows the secure element to be packaged and sold within retail stores after initialization, and then activating the secure element at a later date and time when the secure element is ready to be used by a merchant.

Abstract: The paper describes a method of improving the performance of modules detecting stop, limit, margin call, and other feed based conditions on accounts with individual feed settings. It provides a way of eliminating repetitive re-calculation of bid and asks values for accounts with individual feed settings. This significantly increases the system performance and decreases time of system reaction to the met condition. The algorithm is very useful for large brokerages and other financial real-time systems.
