  • Method of tracking offline user interaction in a rendered document on a mobile device
    Patent number: 8825749
    Abstract: While a device is offline, usage data is tracked on the device. The usage data is uploaded to a server after the device is again connected to a network. Applications that run on mobile devices typically embed a browser to display content. Unfortunately, mobile devices also frequently disconnect from the associated network. A system tracks usage data by using JavaScript in the browser to communicate with the native device, which then buffers the usage data for future upload. This is done by installing, in each application, a “protocol handler” that listens for a request over a particular protocol. The protocol handler intercepts the requests and stores the usage data locally on the device. Subsequently, when the device detects network connectivity, the device uploads the data to servers that collect data for aggregation and presentation.

  • System and method for counting network users
    Patent number: 8775606
    Abstract: Embodiments presented herein provide methods, systems and computer program products for determining a count of network users. One method identifies one or more login access requests, from one or more server logs. Each of the one or more login access requests comprises a login cookie, and a user identifier. The method then forms one or more connected components based on the one or more login access requests. Each connected component comprises one or more user identifiers, wherein each of the one or more user identifiers is associated with one or more login cookies. The method finally determines a count of login users based, at least in part, on the user identifiers in the one or more connected components.
