Abstract

See full text

A compact metering scheme meters visits to a web site. A proxy module intercepts traffic between a client and a server. The proxy module appends a metering module to the body of information sent from the server to the client. The metering module measures the duration of each visit using a timing function F and a unique seed generated for each visit. The metering module returns an auditable result when the client ends the visit. A log keeper module is used to store each result.
