Abstract

The article considers the problem of modeling the Web server operations. At first, the simulation model of the server and the way of conducting experiments making possible to obtain required simulation model parameters of real Web server is introduced. The experiment resulsts and calculated values of parameter of specified Web server are presented. In the end the program written with use of the CSIM 19 package simulating operations of the Web server is discussed.
