Associating Code Instances Without User Input

摘要

A server receives data from each of a plurality of code instances that characterize a location of an associated client device executing the corresponding code instance and comprising a unique instance identification (IID) that identifies such code instance. Thereafter, it can be determined, using a clustering model and based on the received data, which of the code instances are likely to be associated with each other. Next, each code instance can be grouped into one of a plurality of the groups based on the determination. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a server from each of a plurality of code instances corresponding to one more software applications, data characterizing a location and associated time for such location of one of a plurality of associated client devices each executing the corresponding code instance and comprising a unique instance identification (IID) that identifies such code instance; determining, using a clustering model and based on the received data, which of the code instances are likely to be associated with each other based on temporal positions of the code instances in relation to temporal positions of other code instances; and grouping each code instance into one of a plurality of groups based on the determination; wherein the IIDs are based on code embedded in each application that assigns the IIDs to each instance of such application.
