System and method for providing a static model map of behaviors in a middleware system, for use in identifying system problems

摘要

A system and method for providing a static model map of behaviors in a middleware system, for use in identifying problems. In accordance with an embodiment, the system provides a view of the system which allows for analysis of the various components. Locations within the system where a request spends its time are categorized into either "wait" or "execution" locations. The components exhibit static behaviors which affect the response time and can be predefined for different types of components and analyzed independently. In turn the behaviors can be classified as either "wait" or "execution", each of which can be considered aspects of a component. Each aspect of a component must satisfy the same efficiency/inefficiency as defined by the requirements on the system. An aspect that does not meet the criteria is considered a "problem aspect" and is analyzed further to find the cause of the problem.
