Abstract
The purpose of this study was to introduce a software task processing evaluation model that considers the following situations: i) a software system is integratedly composed of several number of modules, ii) each modules has its corresponding module task, iii) all module tasks are tested simultaneously, and iv) the processing times of the module tasks are mutually dependent. The software task completion probability with the module dependency was derived using the joint distribution function of Farlie [11]. The results showed that the task completion probability of software increases with increasing module dependency parameter.
