Abstract

In this paper we state the case for the performance evaluation of secure systems. We provide evidence of a wide variation in performance of different secure methods. We further explore the overhead introduced by secure functions in considering a case study in non-repudiation. We present a model of a non-repudiation protocol specified using the Markovian process algebra PEPA and present results derived using mean value analysis and mean eld approximation.
