Patent ID: 8103880

Claim:
A system for reducing an amount of data transmitted over a network between computing devices by using coded values, the system comprising: a first computing device comprising: a web analytics tool configured to collect data representative of a plurality of interactions of a plurality of users with a content site; and a code generator configured to: receive, from the web analytics tool, a string of data representative of user interaction with a content site; and generate a code representing the received string of data, wherein the code has a length that is less than a length of the received string of data, wherein the first computing device is configured to transmit, to a second computing device via the network, the code without the string of data corresponding to the code; and a second computing device comprising a code translator having locally stored data associating one or more codes with one or more strings of data representative of user interaction with a content site, wherein the locally stored data is stored locally at the second computing device prior to the first computing device transmitting the code via the network, and wherein the code translator is configured to: receive the code transmitted from the first computing device; and identify, from the locally stored data, a string of data corresponding to the code transmitted from the first computing device.
