Abstract

In this paper, a performance model is used for studying distributed web systems (an J2EE web application with Oracle backend-database). Performance evaluation is done by obtaining load test measurements. Queueing Petri Nets (QPN) formalism supports modeling and performance analysis of distributed World Wide Web environments. The proposed distributed web systems modeling and design methodology has been applied for evaluation of several system architectures under different external loads. Experimental analysis is based on benchmark with realistic workload. Furthermore, performance analysis is done to determine the system response time.

Footnotes
1
We assumed that the reader is familiar with Queueing Petri Net formalism [2] and performance analysis tool [9].
 
2
A colour specifies a type of tokens that can be resided in the place.

Queueing Petri net Modeling Environment 2.0 does not support timed transitions, so it was approximated by a serial network consisting of an immediate transition (Black rectangles represent immediate transitions.), a timed queueing place and a second immediate transition [9].
