1. A method of simulating an effect of application-level changes to a network, said method comprising:

  • receiving, via a user interface running on a processor, input indicating changes to an application running on the network;

    determining, by the processor, a plurality of messages caused by the changes to the application;

    determining, by the processor, an effect of propagation of the plurality of messages based on a model that simulates communications in the network; and

    providing, via the user interface, a visual representation of an effect of the propagation of the plurality of messages through the network based on the simulation, wherein the user interface includes a tier-circle view that illustrates tiers as points on a circumference of a curved shape, and messages between each pair of tiers as a line that connect the points corresponding to each tier of the pair of tiers.
