There is a new trend of incorporating software coverage metrics into software modelling. This paper proposes and empirically evaluates a software reliability growth model, which relates reliability to coverage. The proposed model is derived by modifying the assumptions on which Veevers and Marshall model is based.

It is common to measure multiple coverage metrics during software testing. Software reliability growth models and coverage growth functions have been applied to each coverage metric to evaluate software reliability; however, analysis results for the individual coverage metrics may conflict with each other. This paper proposes the virtual coverage metric of a normalized first principal component in order to avoid conflicting cases. The use of the virtual coverage metric causes a negligible loss of information.

A trend in software reliability engineering is to take into account the coverage growth behavior during testing. A coverage growth function that represents the coverage growth behavior is an essential factor in software reliability models. When multiple competitive coverage growth functions are available, there is a need for a criterion to select the best coverage growth functions. This paper proposes a selection criterion based on the prediction error. The conditional coverage growth function is introduced for predicting future coverage growth. Then the sum of the squares of the prediction error is defined and used for selecting the best coverage growth function.

Special, high technology developments and systems improvements become more necessary as the industrial society is becoming complex. When some systems are developed, it is common that developed systems have low-reliability in infant period. Some developed systems need tests to improve their reliability up to the respected level before adapting them. This paper aims at showing the testing program including the reliability growth model for reliability improvement of the Light Rail Transit

In this paper, we propose a software reliability growth model based on the testing domain in the software system, which is isolated by the executed test cases in software testing. In particular, our model assumes an imperfect debugging environment in which new faults are introduced in the fault-correction process, and is formulated as a nonhomogeneous Poisson process(NHPP). Further, it is applied to fault-detection data, the results of software reliability assessment are shown, and comparison of goodness-of-fit with the existing software reliability growth model is performed.

Under development program for a complex system, the total system or major subsystems are tested to failure, system failure modes are analyzed, and design and engineering changes are made to eliminate these failure modes. If this TAAF(test-analyze-and-fix) process is continued, and modifications are made in a competent manner, then the system reliability increase. This paper presents the reliability growth theory and applies it to some subsystems during their development and initial production testing. The application of these techniques is a part of the product assurance function that plays an important role in product reliability improvement. In addition, the EN 50126 requires essentially reliability growth for RAM growth monitoring.

Many software reliability growth models (SRGMs) based on nonhomogeneous Poisson process (NHPP) have been developed and applied in practice. NHPP SRGMs are characterized by their mean value functions. Mean value functions are usually derived from differential equations representing the fault detection/removal process during testing. In this paper such differential equations are regarded as frameworks for generating mean value functions. Currently available frameworks are theoretically discussed with respect to capability of representing the fault detection/removal process. Then two general frameworks are proposed.

신뢰성 성장 시험을 수행하며 획득하게 되는 고장 정보와 누적 시험수행시간을 이용하면 신뢰성 성장 모델의 모수 추정이 가능하며, 모수 추정을 통해 해당 제품의 MTBF를 예측할 수 있다. 그러나 시험에 대한 비용, 시간 혹은 제품의 특성 등의 여러 제약으로 인해 고장 정보가 구간적으로 획득되거나, 획득한 고장 정보의 샘플 데이터(Sample Data)의 수가 작을 수 있다. 이는 신뢰성 성장 모델의 모수 추정의 오차를 커지게 하는 원인이 될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 샘플 데이터의 수가 작을 경우 신뢰성 성장 모델의 모수 추정 시 베이지안 기법 기반의 모수 추정 방법의 적용에 대해 연구를 수행하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과 신뢰성 성장 모델의 모수를 추정할 때, MLE를 적용하여 추정하는 방법보다 베이지안 기법을 적용하는 방법이 추정 정확도가 높음을 확인하였다.

Gompertz 성장곡선에 기반한 기존의 소프트웨어 신뢰성 성장모델들은 모두 대수형이다. 대수형 Gompertz 성장 곡선에 기반한 소프트웨어 신뢰성 성장 모델들은 모수 추정에 어려움을 갖고 있다. 그러므로 본 논문은 로지스틱형 Gompertz 성장곡선에 기반한 신뢰성 성장 모델을 제안한다. 13개의 다른 소프트웨어 프로젝트로부터 얻은 고장 데이터를 분석하여 그 유용성을 검토하였다. 모델의 모수들은 변수변환을 통한 선형희귀분석과 Virence의 방법으로 추정되었다. 제안된 모델은 평균 상대 예측 오차에 기반하여 성능을 비교하였다. 실험 결과 제안된 모델은 대수형 Gompertz 성장 곡선에 기반한 모델보다 좋은 성능을 보였다.
