Abstract
We address this issue in the context of distributed responsive systems. Their key goal is to provide users with services that are responsive, that is, are timely and fault-tolerant under specified load and failure hypotheses. A user might in its turn provide services to other users, so there can be a complex depends-upon relation between services situated at different levels of abstraction.
