Abstract

Se describen métodos, aparatos y artículos de fabricación para reducir la exposición de errores de acreditación por derrame debido a efectos colaterales en un sistema de monitoreo de medios. Un método ejemplar incluye determinar si los datos de seguimiento de primeros medios proporcionados desde un primer medidor, identifican un mismo medio que segundos medios de comunicación de datos de seguimiento previstos a partir de un segundo medidor. Si los primeros datos de monitoreo de medios identifican los mismos medios que los segundos datos de monitoreo de medios, el método ejemplar incluye la detección si se produjo desbordamiento mediante la determinación de si un valor absoluto de una diferencia entre una primera marca de tiempo asociada con los primeros datos de monitoreo de medios y una segunda marca de tiempo asociada con 'los segundos datos de monitoreo de medios es menor que un umbral. Si se ha producido desbordamiento, el método ejemplar incluye la determinación de cuáles de los primeros datos de monitoreo de medios o los segundos datos de monitoreo de medios se acreditan como exposición a los medios.
