A Process-Profile-Based Method to Measure Consistency of E-Commerce System

In the behavior consistency analysis of E-commerce systems, sometimes there may appear loop structure between two E-commerce systems, which leads to the situation that internal behavior relation is consistent but external process of net is not. The existing methods mostly do not consider the loop structure, which ignore the influence of loop structure on consistency analysis. This paper, by analyzing internal behavior relations of each process and depicting correlative relations between process segments, proposes a concept of process profile. And then, through the research on the external relations of process segments, a measure method of behavior consistency based on process profile is proposed, which can be computed in polynomial time. As an application, the method is illustrated for consistency measure of a real case about E-commerce model.
