Assessing the Behaviour of Web Services using Finite States

Web service are the technology of a choice when developing business applications that needs to be loosely coupled, platform independent and capable to cross enterprise boundaries. The interactions that occur between web services need to be captured because such interactions would be very useful if captured using appropriate structures and analyzed for various purposes such as assessing the responsiveness of a web service to complete peer's requests. Since the invocations of web services (WS) are dynamic, the behaviour of the WS will be dynamic depending on how the invocations discover, and get serviced by WSs. For this reason if the states of the behaviour of a WS can be captured and assessed, then tuning the WS and its performance improvement can be engineered at any stage. This work is presented in this paper.
