Abstract
A computer implemented method of adjusting for varying delays in communication of a batch of actions uploaded for processing from a client application to a server application. The method includes receiving the batch of actions to be processed, the batch of actions including the actions, action time stamps, and an upload time stamp, generating a receipt time stamp for receipt of the batch, estimating times of occurrences of actions in the batch based on a base time and the action time stamps, and adjusting a process running on a server based on the estimated times. The base time is estimated by estimating when a first action in the batch occurred and, if a time between two adjacent actions in the batch exceeds a predefined limit, the base time is re-estimated by estimating when a second of the two adjacent actions occurred.
