Abstract: A method for attributing revenue for embedded software that displays advertising. The method includes the first step of determining the presence of more than one type of embedded software on a given client site. Then, the process assigns priority based on the length of time each type has resided on the client system and the source of each type, followed by classifying each software type, based on the history of present and predecessor copies of the software. A distribution factor is applied to each software type, based on the amount of advertising displayed by each software type and the length of time each software type has been installed. The partner revenue is distributed based on the distribution factor applied to each software type and a rate table.
