Abstract(s)
It is not difficult to find an enterprise which has a software ecosystem composed of applications that were
built using different technologies, data models, operating systems, and most often were not designed to
exchange data and share functionalities. Enterprise Application Integration provides methodologies and
tools to design and implement integration solutions. The state-of-the-art integration technologies provide
a domain-specific language that enables the design of conceptual models for integration solutions. The
analysis of integration solutions to predict their behaviour and find possible performance bottlenecks is
an important activity that contributes to increase the quality of the delivered solutions, however, software
engineers follow a costly, risky, and time-consuming approach. Integration solutions shall be understood
as a discrete-event system. This chapter introduces a new approach based on simulation to take
advantage of well-established techniques and tools for discrete-event simulation, cutting down cost, risk,
and time to deliver better integration solutions.
