Abstract
We propose a comparative performance evaluation of security protocols. The novelty of our approach lies in the use of a polynomial mathematical model that captures the performance of classes of cryptographic algorithms instead of capturing the performance of each algorithm separately, approach that is used in other papers. A major advantage of using such a model is that it does not require implementation-specific information, because the decision is based on comparing the estimated performances of protocols instead of actually evaluating them. The approach is validated by comparatively evaluating the performances of 1000 automatically generated security protocols against the performances of their actual implementations.
