DescriptionThe thesis will study price optimization techniques, SaaS industry pricing structures, A/B testing, and then build a unique framework to optimize price and maximize revenue. The ultimate goal of the thesis research is to create a framework that identifies the best pricing structure and price points for a SaaS company.

Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) has received significant attention in recent years as major computer companies such as Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and Salesforce are adopting this new approach to develop software and systems. Cloud computing is a computing infrastructure to enable rapid delivery of computing resources as a utility in a dynamic, scalable, and virtualized manner. Computer Simulations are widely utilized to analyze the behaviors of software and test them before fully implementations. Simulation can further benefit SaaS application in a cost-effective way taking the advantages of cloud such as customizability, configurability and multi-tendency.

This research introduces Modeling, Simulation and Analysis for Software-as-Service in Cloud. The researches cover the following topics: service modeling, policy specification, code generation, dynamic simulation, timing, event and log analysis. Moreover, the framework integrates current advantages of cloud: configurability, Multi-Tenancy, scalability and recoverability.

The following chapters are provided in the architecture:

Multi-Tenancy Simulation Software-as-a-Service.

Policy Specification for MTA simulation environment.

Model Driven PaaS Based SaaS modeling.

Dynamic analysis and dynamic calibration for timing analysis.

Event-driven Service-Oriented Simulation Framework.

LTBD: A Triage Solution for SaaS.
