Missing those, UC service offers fail in: prediction of resource utilisation and dependent operational costs prediction, calculation of subsequent price scales, and subsequent runtime gross price calculations. In this paper a strategy to handle UC’s complexity proposing a simulation model to support each step in the service operations lifecycle is presented.
