A server computer receives web request events corresponding to web requests issued by users. Each web request event includes: a cookie that identifies the user computer that originated the corresponding web request; an IP address corresponding to the user computer; and a date/time stamp indicating when the corresponding web request was received at a web server. The server stores the web request events. The server selects a subset of the web request events, all of which are associated with the same cookie. Then the server computes a geographical location corresponding to the user computer, where the computation uses the IP address associated with the web request event. The server determines the local time and day of week corresponding to the web request. The server then classifies the user computer based, at least in part, on a usage pattern corresponding to the web request events in the subset. |
