Computer science description: In this tutorial paper we present quantitative methods for analysing Web Services with the goal of understanding how they will perform under increased demand, or when asked to serve a larger pool of service subscribers. We use a process calculus called SRMC to model the service. We apply efficient analysis techniques to numerically evaluate our model. The process calculus and the numerical analysis are supported by a set of software tools which relieve the modeller of the burden of generating and evaluating a large family of related models. The methods are illustrated on a classical example of Web Service usage in a business-to-business scenario. publisher: Springer date: 2009 type: Book Section type: PeerReviewed identifier: Clark, Allan and Gilmore, Stephen and Tribastone, Mirco Quantitative analysis of web services using SRMC.
