A real estate transaction and release tracking system ensures deeds of trust, liens and other encumbrances are released in a timely manner after a specified (or statutory) period of time following settlement of a real estate transaction. Based on information provided by an agent, such as an escrow agent or a settlement agent, the system creates a unique electronic record for each real estate transaction entered by the agent. The system tracks lien status information, either automatically from other computers or via manual input from searchers, and uses this status information to track each real estate transaction. The system monitors the records and indicates when a lien holder has failed to release their lien after a statutory time period that begins after the passing of the settlement date. When the statutory time period has passed, the system can generate a number of forms, including a demand letter as controlled optionally by the system or the user. The demand letter can be sent to the lien holder demanding them to release the lien. If the lien is not thereafter released, further legal documents can be generated and sent to a law firm or enforcement agent for legal action to be taken against the delinquent lien holder.

In accordance with the principles of the present invention, a novel method, system, process, and computer program is provided that synthetically replicates a plain vanilla IR Swap through a future as well as to create a more fungible interest rate swap in the spot market. The forward start interest rate swaps of the present invention consist of a consecutive series of futures that value a forward start interest rate swap to start on a settlement date. The futures replicate the floating-rate payment terms for the interest rate swap that is being synthetically replicated. The spot interest rate swap is a standardized interest rate swap that is fungible.

In accordance with the principles of the present invention, a system is provided to help link foreign exchange liquidity at a given settlement date. Exchange trade is represented as a positive product flow and a negative product flow relative to a side of the exchange trade. An exchange relationship between products is defined. A hierarchy of the products is defined. Cross rates to other foreign exchange products in the system are calculated. In accordance with the present invention, a system is provided to integrate spot / forward and swap markets. A forward event type and a swap event type are defined. In a database, spot and other designated dates are defined. Correct settlement dates for the named dates are determined. When an order is entered into the system, the order is entered into an order book, whereby settlement dates are aligned for transactions. In accordance with the present invention, a system is provided to match products in a swap. Products are matched against resting real orders. Products are then matched against resting implied orders with a prioritization scheme. For any residual resting order, implied markets are computed and again checked for matches. When new implieds are generated / checked, if the original order is a ‘spot’ order implieds are generated / checked first along a product axis, then along a date axis. For all other orders, implieds are generated / checked first along the date axis, then the product axis.

The invention discloses a method for switching internet browsing modes according to surplus flow of a mobile phone. The method comprises the following steps: S1, obtaining surplus flow A of the service plan of a phone card on the current date; S2, calculating the number D of the remaining days to the next monthly settlement date; S3, calculating the planned flow consumption V, wherein V equals to A / D; S4, counting the flow consumption H of the phone card on the current date, wherein the flow consumption H of the phone card on the current date is exclusive of any free flow which dose not incur any cost; and S5, when the difference value between V and H is less than a preset value E, switching application programs of the mobile phone, which consume the flow of the service plan of the phone card, to simplified running modes. Through the application of the invention, running modes of application programs such as browsers can be intelligently switched according to the surplus flow, the flow consumption for internet browsing is effectively reduced, and the situation that the flow consumption exceeds the service plan of the phone card is effectively avoided.

The relative size of the IMM contracts will be determined by the distance in time from the IMM quarterly contract settlement date. A system is disclosed for performing offset trades and IMM hedges. The embodiments allow for non-neutral trading and subsequent heging brings trading back to a neutral position.
