Abstract: A method for establishing correspondences between mobile communication users and their network accounts includes acquiring an identifier of one of the mobile communication users and access information corresponding to the identifier from a communication stream. The access information includes Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) associated with network resources that have been accessed by the one of the mobile communication users. The method further includes acquiring a first set of network accounts associated with the URLs, and determining a second set of network accounts corresponding to the one of the mobile communication users based on the first set of network accounts.

Abstract: In an approach to pricing an API, a computer determines whether an application programming interface (API) is published by a developer. Responsive to determining an API is published by the developer, the computer determines one or more characteristics of the API and whether a price history exists for the API. Responsive to determining a price history does exist for the API, the computer determines an initial price for the API. The computer then determines, based, at least in part, on the one or more characteristics of the API and the price history for the API, whether the initial price maximizes a surplus value for a sale of the API.
