Abstract

Software reliability factor during the software development process is elementary. Case of the infinite failure NHPP for identifying software failure, the occurrence rates per fault (hazard function) have the characteristic point that is constant, increases and decreases. In this paper, we propose a reliability model using the chi - square distribution which depends on the degree of freedom that represents the application efficiency of software reliability. Algorithm to estimate the parameters used to the maximum likelihood estimator and bisection method, a model selection based on the mean square error (MSE) and coefficient of determination($R^2$), for the sake of the efficient model, were employed. For the reliability model using the proposed degree of freedom of the chi - square distribution, the failure analysis using the actual failure interval data was applied. Fault data analysis is compared with the intensity function using the degree of freedom of the chi - square distribution. For the insurance about the reliability of a data, the Laplace trend test was employed. In this study, the chi-square distribution model depends on the degree of freedom, is also efficient about reliability because have the coefficient of determination is 90% or more, in the ground of the basic model, can used as a applied model. From this paper, the software development designer must be applied life distribution by the applied basic knowledge of the software to confirm failure modes which may be applied.

소프트웨어 개발과정동안 소프트웨어 신뢰성 요인은 매우 기본적인 사항이다. 소프트웨어 고장파악을 위한 무한고장 비동질적인 포아송 과정을 이용할 때 고장발생률 혹은 위험함수가 일정하거나 증가 또는 감소하는 속성을 가진다. 본 논문에서는 소프트웨어 신뢰 성능에 관한 효율성을 비교하는 자유도에 의존하는 카이제곱 분포를 적용한 신뢰성 모형을 제안하였다. 효율적인 모형을 평가하기 위하여 평균제곱오차(MSE)와 결정계수($R^2$)를 이용하고 최우추정법과 수치 해석적 방법을 사용하여 모수추정 알고리즘이 수행되었다. 제안하는 카이제곱분포의 자유도를 이용한 신뢰성 모형을 위해 실제 고장 간격 데이터를 사용한 고장 성능 분석이 적용되었다. 고장데이터 분석은 카이제곱분포의 자유도에 근거한 강도함수를 기준으로 비교되었다. 데이터 신뢰성을 확인하기 위하여 라플라스 추세검정이 적용되었다. 본 연구에 제안된 카이제곱분포의 자유도는 다양한 고장현상을 표현 할 수 있기 때문에 (결정계수가 90% 이상), 신뢰성 분야에서 활용 할 수 있는 모형으로 활용 할 수 있다. 이 연구 결과를 적용하면 소프트웨어 개발 설계자에게 다양한 자유도를 적용하여 소프트웨어 고장패턴을 예측함으로서 효율적인 모형을 개발하는데 표준 지침으로 적용 할 수 있다.
