Abstract
In general, webpage or other resource accesses by client systems may be recorded, and those accesses may be analyzed to develop audience measurement reports. At times, it may be desirable to segment those reports according to classes of client systems (e.g., work vs. home client systems). A given client system can be classed into one of the reporting classes based on one or more classes of network service providers that provide the client with access to a network. The recorded resource accesses and classes of the client systems can then be used to generate audience measurement reports that are segmented according to one or more of the client system classes.
