ABSTRACT

This lecture examines the opportunities and the challenges applying  search technologies to securities trading data. The cost of magnetic  storage and bandwidth makes it practical to encourage both information  rich strategies and high volume transactional trading. The industry  must find new ways to organize and find relationships between several  systems and data sets in real time for volumes that were not possible  just a few years ago. George will discuss the latest techniques using  search technologies on individual transactions and the science behind  indexing large amounts of small documents for fixed income, equities  and options.
