1. A system for monitoring a total response time for executing a synthetic transaction over a communication system, said monitoring system comprising:

  • a communication system for conveying information;

    an administrative node being coupled to the communication system and the administrative node having an internal clock;

    a transactional node being coupled to the communication system and the transactional node having an internal clock;

    means for synchronizing the internal clock of both the administrative node and the transaction node to display an identical time;

    means for generating and sending a synthetic transaction from the administrative node to the transaction node for execution via the communication system and recording the sending time of the synthetic transaction;

    means for receiving and executing, at the transaction node, the synthetic transaction sent by the administrative node while recording a time of receipt of the synthetic transaction and a required time to complete each desired step of the synthetic transaction;

    means for transmitting a result of the synthetic transaction to the administrative node, via the communication system, along with time information indicating the time required to complete each desired step of the synthetic transaction; and

    means for generating the total response time required to execute the synthetic transaction.
