Patent ID: 8843522

Claim:
A method implemented on a computer system comprising at least one processor and a storage device, comprising: (a) receiving a set of alphanumeric information on a single storage device; (b) using a first criteria for processing alphanumeric information and generating metadata to generate a first set of metadata associated with a first subset of the received alphanumeric information; (c) using a second criteria for processing alphanumeric information and generating metadata different than the first criteria to generate a second set of metadata associated with a second subset of the received alphanumeric information, wherein the first subset of alphanumeric information is different than the second subset of alphanumeric information; (d) using a third criteria for processing alphanumeric information and generating metadata different than the first criteria and the second criteria to generate a third set of metadata associated with a third subset of the received alphanumeric information, wherein the third subset of alphanumeric information is different than the first and second subsets of alphanumeric information; and (e) transmitting, to a user computer, the first set of metadata at a first time, the second set of metadata at a second time subsequent to the first time, and the third set of metadata at a third time subsequent to the second time; wherein at least one of the first set of metadata, the second set of metadata, and the third set of metadata causes execution of an automated security trade.
