Abstract
In distributed environment the changes and challenges faced by composite web services in their network environment are enormous. The primary issue in these systems is to distribute the load among various components of the composite web services to improve the performance through minimizing the response time. In this paper, we present a methodology to estimate the load sharing among composite web services using traditional workflow concept combined with game theory approach. In addition, we have developed a simulation model and observed that the results are promising for a better understanding of workload sharing among individual web services. We obtained the stable solution for ensuring the cooperation of the web services which further helps in capacity planning in composite web services network environment.
