      From "How to Write a Technical Paper: Structure and Style of the Epitome of your Research":

      Analysis can be of two types: qualitative and quantitative.
      The former means to show some properties (qualities)
      of your solution, while the latter means to show some
      performance aspects of your solution.
      Qualitative analysis is usually proof of correctness,
      however it could be proof that the solution possesses some
      desired property. For algorithms or protocols, a proof of
      correctness is always welcome.
      Quantitative analysis is mostly performance analysis.
      It is important to explain what performance metric you
      use and why you have selected the specific metric. Choosing a metric that has been widely used will make the
      comparison to other solutions easier.

      Let's include any numbers we can measure: number of test runs, computing hours spent testing, number of states encountered and what percentage of the theoretical state space that is, lines of spec code, lines of implementation code in MongoDB.
