Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for identifying active streaming connections associated with a particular user account. Each active streaming connection transmits heartbeat packets periodically to a server that tracks the receipt of the heartbeat packets. If, for a particular streaming connection, the server stops receiving heartbeat packets, then the server is able to infer that the streaming connection has been terminated.

Abstract translation: 本发明的一个实施例提出了一种用于识别与特定用户帐户相关联的活动流连接的技术。 每个活动流连接将周期性地将心跳分组发送到跟踪心跳分组的接收的服务器。 如果对于特定的流连接，服务器停止接收心跳数据包，则服务器能够推断流连接已被终止。
