摘要:
An electronic content publication management system (1) for publishing content to one or more electronically accessible sites, each site including at least one electronic page (40), the system comprising content database means (2) for storing a plurality of content objects (3); content management database means (4) for storing a data structure (5) identifying each electronic page, one or more content pools (52, 59) within each page and one or more content objects (57, 58, 63, 64) within each page, wherein the data structure identifies one or more nested content pools or content objects within each content pool; and electronic page assembly means (10, 11, 12) for generating one or more completed electronic pages for each site using the stored data structure and stored content objects.

An indwelling heat exchange catheter with integrated temperature sensor includes a catheter tube. A closed loop heat exchanger extends from the catheter tube. A temperature sensor can be integrally formed with the catheter tube such that it is insulated from the closed loop heat exchanger. The indwelling heat exchange catheter can further include a guide-wire tube that extends from the catheter tube and in such a case, the temperature sensor can be affixed to the guide-wire tube. Alternatively, a wire can extend through the catheter tube and the temperature sensor can be affixed to the wire.

A benzodiazepinedione derivative which acts as a nonpeptidyl platelet aggregation inhibitor is provided. This inhibitor potently inhibits fibrinogen binding to the GPII.sub.b III.sub.a receptor and is provided in therapeutic compositions for the treatment of diseases for which blocking platelet aggregation is indicated. These nonpeptidyl inhibitors are provided in combination with thrombolytics and anticoagulants.

The disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods which match/allocate an incoming order to trade with “resting,” i.e. previously received but not yet matched, orders, recognizing that the algorithm or rules by which the incoming order is matched may affect the operation of the market for the financial product being traded. In particular, the disclosed embodiments relate to an adaptive match engine which draws upon different matching algorithms, e.g. the rules which dictate how a given order should be allocated among qualifying resting orders, depending upon market conditions, to improve the operation of the market. Thereby, by conditionally switching among matching algorithms within the same financial product, as will be described, the disclosed match engine automatically adapts to the changing market conditions of a financial product, e.g. a limited life product, in a non-preferential manner, maintaining fair order allocation while improving market liquidity, e.g., over the life of the product.

The disclosed embodiments relate to an exchange-traded futures contract, guaranteed by a clearing house, and characterized by an embedded price dynamic comprising a compound accrual of a periodic interest rate up to a date on which trading therein is terminated, as specified in the futures contract terms and conditions. A trader may be allowed and/or enabled to take a position in a futures contract with respect to an interest bearing underlier with a variable interest rate and, thereby, minimize the number of transactions and attendant costs with respect to monitoring and correcting for divergences between the futures position and the notional interest rate swap exposure for which the futures position is intended to serve as a proxy. Variation margin for the position is computed based on an underlying reference interest rate as opposed to being computed solely on the basis of the end-of-business day price of the futures contract.

Networks, systems and methods that match orders for TBA futures and settle and clear open positions for TBA futures are disclosed. The TBA futures may include MBS TBA future contracts. A central counterparty clearing firm may net long and short positions and generate delivery instructions to parties having open positions.
摘要:
The disclosed embodiments relate to determining a listing date, an expiration date and the cash settlement price of a futures contract, i.e. a Treasury Futures, for the delivery of the most recently issued, referred to as an on-the-run, US treasury Note of a particular maturity by reference to the U.S. Treasury Auction cycle and the difference between a resultant industry surveyed swap rate and a resultant industry surveyed swap spread of the respective tenors (time remaining until maturity) of the on-the-run treasury futures.

A kit of parts comprises a system and instructions for use for controlling patient temperature which uses a central venous line catheter having a heat exchange element. The central venous line catheter is provided with one or more lumens for providing access to the central blood supply of the patient and with additional lumens for communicating heat exchange fluid to the heat exchange element. Heat exchange fluid temperature is controlled through a feed back loop iii which patient temperature is sensed and used to control a temperature control unit comprising a heating device and/or a cooling device in heat exchange relationship with the heat exchange fluid. A tubing set transports the heat exchange fluid between the central venous line and the temperature control unit, with a pump serving to circulate the fluid in a closed fluid circuit in the system.

Systems and methods are provided to fulfill customer trading orders in an illiquid two sided market. Request for cross functionality may be implemented in a trading environment using a trading engine for the matching of trades involving financial instruments. Request for cross functionally integrates the benefits of a dual bid-ask continuous trading market model with the price and quantity trade matching systems and methods.
