Abstract

In this paper, we present a brief overview of Tuxedo middleware system (BEA Systems) and introduce an object-oriented computer simulation template developed for the purpose of capacity planning and performance analysis of Tuxedo application environments. Arena/Siman (Rockwell Software) simulation software is chosen and a CP_Tool template specific to Tuxedo environment is developed. The template consists of a number of modules representing client and server nodes, network nodes and other critical components of the system. Any Tuxedo environment can be created using the modules from the CP_Tool. The paper discusses the tool and its capabilities.
