Download or read book Early Software Reliability Prediction written by Ajeet Kumar Pandey and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-07-12 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of software system with acceptable level of reliability and quality within available time frame and budget becomes a challenging objective. This objective could be achieved to some extent through early prediction of number of faults present in the software, which reduces the cost of development as it provides an opportunity to make early corrections during development process. The book presents an early software reliability prediction model that will help to grow the reliability of the software systems by monitoring it in each development phase, i.e. from requirement phase to testing phase. Different approaches are discussed in this book to tackle this challenging issue. An important approach presented in this book is a model to classify the modules into two categories (a) fault-prone and (b) not fault-prone. The methods presented in this book for assessing expected number of faults present in the software, assessing expected number of faults present at the end of each phase and classification of software modules in fault-prone or no fault-prone category are easy to understand, develop and use for any practitioner. The practitioners are expected to gain more information about their development process and product reliability, which can help to optimize the resources used.

Download or read book Methodology for Software Reliability Prediction written by and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Guidebook provides detailed procedures for the preparation of software reliability predictions and estimations on DOD projects. In developing the Guidebook, 59 software systems were examined and 19 key variables were identified that affected the software reliability of those systems. Procedures to measure these variables were developed to account for the type of application, development, environment, various software characteristics (such as modularity and complexity), test technique, test effort and test coverage. A methodology was also provided to use these measures to predict software fault density and software failure rates. The Guidebook could be applied by an Air Force acquisition office to help plan for adequate software reliability early in a project's life, specify achievable software reliability goals in a RFP, evaluate progress toward those goals at key project milestones and decide when to release the software. The Guidebook could also be used by the technical staff to establish thresholds for critical measures such as complexity. In addition the Guidebook also contains Quality Review and Standards Review Checklists that can be used in conjunction with the software reliability prediction and estimation methodology. The Quality Review Checklists are used to assess the quality of the requirements and design representation of the software while the Standards Review Checklist would be applied to software code. The checklists provide good guidance for ensuring that quality is built into the software.
