Abstract
Techniques to assign nodes in a network to groups of nodes are described. The techniques include representing hosts in the network by property vectors that encode information about the hosts, identifying properties of the property vector by integers in the property vector for the host and determining proximity of hosts according to the property vectors and grouping the hosts according to the determined proximity.
