  • Patent number: 10445343
    Abstract: Systems and methods for data conversion and distribution. A data collection system receives data from plural data sources; extracts data values for each data source from the data; classifies each extracted value among categories; and stores each extracted value in a database according to a data mapping based on a category index, such that the extracted value is stored according to the associated category index. A data performance system retrieves, for each category, data values associated with the category and a predetermined period, by querying the database based on the category index; and runs, for each category, the retrieved data through statistical algorithms, to generate data performance metrics representative of the data from all of the data sources. A data distribution system generates a predictive performance metric for further data based on a comparison between the further data and the data performance metrics for at least one category.

  • Patent number: 8799140
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for facilitating financial interactions relating to fixed income securities. In one aspect, a computer-based method for facilitating a transfer of a fixed income security includes receiving an indication from a computer-based interface device that a initiating party seeks a counterparty for a financial transaction involving the transfer of the fixed income security, accessing data in an electronic database relating to a plurality of potential counterparties for the financial transaction and assigning to one or more of the plurality of potential counterparties an indication as to likelihood that the potential counterparty will engage in the financial transaction. The indication of likelihood that the potential counterparty will engage in the financial transaction is based on the data in the electronic database.

  • Publication number: 20140040098
    Abstract: A method includes: (a) receiving market data, in which the market data includes information relating to one or more transactions of a security; (b) obtaining, using a data processing apparatus, a contemporaneous reference value, in which the contemporaneous reference value is contemporaneous with a first transaction of the security; (c) obtaining, from the market data, a sample transaction value; (d) defining a market movement threshold value and determining whether a difference between the sample transaction value and the contemporaneous reference value is greater than the market movement threshold value; and (e) outputting to computer-based memory a result of determining whether the difference between the first sample transaction value and the first contemporaneous reference value is greater than the market movement threshold value.

  • Publication number: 20120317053
    Abstract: A machine-implemented method includes: obtaining transaction data relating to one or more financial assets, the transaction data including the identity of the one or more financial assets, corresponding valuation data for the one or more financial assets, and corresponding volume data for the one or more financial assets; receiving, at the data processing apparatus, a request to display information relating to a first financial asset from the one or more financial assets; generating, in response to receiving the request, output data for display at a user terminal, in which the output data includes a user interface that displays at least a portion of the transaction data relating to the first financial asset and market projection information relating to the first financial asset, in which the market projection information is substantially contemporaneous with the portion of transaction data; and transmitting the output data to the user terminal.

  • Patent number: 6561100
    Abstract: A method of printing on composite substrates particularly composite substrates of the type having a matrix impregnated with a resin such as an epoxy. The method is particularly applicable to carbon fiber substrates known as “pregs” or “pre-pregs.” The substrate is maintained in a cooled condition, is sheeted and provided with a carrier. The surface is top coated with a UV curing ink. After curing, an image is applied using UV curable inks. After printing, the substrates are maintained in a cold condition for subsequent processing into items such as tubes, rods or the like.
