Claims (44)

1. A system for coordinating transmission of one or more data sets comprising market data to a plurality of subscribers, the system comprising at least one processor configured to:

parse source instructions to prepare signals representing at least a portion of a data process to a plurality of networked computing resources, the data process including one or more data sets comprising information content and one or more networking parameters for communicating the information content from one or more computer systems associated with one or more of the subscribers associated with respective networked computing resources;

associate, with the signals representing at least a portion of the data process, at least one timing parameter determined at least partly using one or more latencies associated with execution of signal exchanges associated with at least one of the networked computing resources; and

route, in accordance with a timing sequence, the signals representing at least a portion of the data process to a networked computing resource,

wherein each of the plurality of subscribers is associated with a tier, and wherein the timing sequence is based on at least one associated timing parameter so as to cause prioritized arrival or processing of at least a portion of the data process at networked computer resources based on the tier associated with respective subscribers.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one timing parameter is determined based at least partly on at least one of:

dynamically-monitored latency in execution of signal processing requests routed to at least one of the plurality of networked computing resources;

statistical latency in execution of signal processing requests routed to the at least one of the plurality of networked computing resources;

historical latency in execution of signal processing requests routed to the at least one of the plurality of networked computing resources; and

predictive latency in execution of signal processing requests routed to the at least one of the plurality of networked execution processors.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the information content includes market data.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of subscribers is associated with a tier of a plurality of tiers.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of subscribers is associated with a single tier.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the timing sequence is determined such that the prioritized arrival or processing of at least a portion of the data process is simultaneous; or is according to: a non-simultaneous sequence, or a determined relative timing.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the timing sequence is determined based on the at least one associated timing parameter so as to cause prioritized arrival or processing of: the start of the one or more data sets, the end of the one or more data sets, or a desired portion of the one or more data sets.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the source instructions are based on parameters defining at least one of:

a time at which the signals representing at least a portion of the data process to a networked computer resource are routed; and

a frequency at which the signals representing at least a portion of the data process to a networked computer resource are routed.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to receive signals from at least one of the plurality of networked computing resources to detect whether the at least one of the plurality of networked computing resources is manipulating network latency data.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one timing parameter is determined based at least partly on at least one of: communication delay, processing delay, or a latency probability model.

11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the information content is associated with financial interests including at least one of commodities, currency interests, equity interests, non-equity interests, or derivatives thereof.

12. A method performed by at least one data processor executing machine-interpretable instructions configured to cause the at least one processor to:

parse source instructions to prepare signals representing at least a portion of a data process to a plurality of networked computing resources, the data process including one or more data sets comprising information content and one or more networking parameters for communicating the information content from one or more computer systems associated with one or more of the subscribers associated with respective networked computing resources;

associate, with the signals representing at least a portion of the data process, at least one timing parameter determined at least partly using one or more latencies associated with execution of signal exchanges associated with at least one of the networked computing resources; and

route, in accordance with a timing sequence, the signals representing at least a portion of the data process to a networked computing resource,

wherein each of the plurality of subscribers is associated with a tier, and wherein the timing sequence is based on at least one associated timing parameter so as to cause prioritized arrival or processing of at least a portion of the data process at networked computer resources based on the tier associated with respective subscribers.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the at least one timing parameter is determined based at least partly on at least one of:

dynamically-monitored latency in execution of signal processing requests routed to at least one of the plurality of networked computing resources;

statistical latency in execution of signal processing requests routed to the at least one of the plurality of networked computing resources;

historical latency in execution of signal processing requests routed to the at least one of the plurality of networked computing resources; and

predictive latency in execution of signal processing requests routed to the at least one of the plurality of networked execution processors.

14. The method of claim 12 , wherein the information content includes market data.

15. The method of claim 12 , wherein each of the plurality of subscribers is associated with a tier of a plurality of tiers.

16. The method of claim 12 , wherein the timing sequence is determined such that the prioritized arrival or processing of at least a portion of the data process is simultaneous; or is according to: a non-simultaneous sequence, or a determined relative timing.

17. The method of claim 12 , wherein the timing sequence is determined based on the at least one associated timing parameter so as to cause prioritized arrival or processing of: the start of the one or more data sets, the end of the one or more data sets, or a desired portion of the one or more data sets.

18. The method of claim 12 , wherein the source instructions are based on parameters defining at least one of:

a time at which the signals representing at least a portion of the data process to a networked computer resource are routed; and

a frequency at which the signals representing at least a portion of the data process to a networked computer resource are routed.

19. The method of claim 12 , wherein the information content is associated with financial interests including at least one of commodities, currency interests, equity interests, non-equity interests, or derivatives thereof.

20. A computer-readable medium or media comprising non-transient machine-readable programming structures configured to cause at least one processor to:

parse source instructions to prepare signals representing at least a portion of a data process to a plurality of networked computing resources, the data process including one or more data sets comprising information content and one or more networking parameters for communicating the information content from one or more computer systems associated with one or more of the subscribers associated with respective networked computing resources;
