A method includes receiving, from a plurality of first compute devices, a group wager to produce a plurality of group wagers, each group wager having (1) a wager amount that is defined at that first compute device and (2) a condition that is based on an outcome of a game that is played by a user of a second compute device that is not included in the plurality of first compute devices. The plurality of group wagers is provided as input to a bin packing model to identify a subset of group wagers. In response to executing the game to determine a winning settlement, an electronic payment amount is sent to a first compute device that is from the plurality of first compute devices and that is associated with that group wager, the electronic payment amount being based on the wager amount of that group wager.

A trusted execution environment on a computing device within an enterprise, whether owned by the enterprise or the employee/user, allows invocation of trusted enterprise applications without hindering external or non-enterprise apps from running on the same computing device. Each of the trusted apps can interact with other trusted apps on the same enterprise computing device in a trusted manner such that other apps or untrusted network connections are prevented for access to the trusted apps. The computing device, however, also executes non enterprise applications which operate independently of the enterprise apps in the same address space using the same unmodified operating system as the enterprise apps on the computing device. The trusted execution environment therefore restricts interprocess communication to be only within the set of enterprise apps and also permits unimpeded operation of other apps under the same OTS (off the shelf) operating system.

Trusted execution environment

A trusted execution environment on an enterprise-enabled computing device allows invocation of a suite of secure applications (apps) on a computing device in an enterprise without hindering external or non-enterprise apps from running on in the same memory space on the same enterprise computing device. An application wrapper provides an operation queue for storing application lifecycle operations while the trusted execution environment is enabled, and the environment is secured. The application defers lifecycle operation to ensure that all security measures are in place before it is allowed to execute. The operation queue receives entries corresponding to the application lifecycle events, and suspends process execution of the lifecycle operations until the secure environment is ready for the operation queued events to be executed.
