  • We summarize, in this paper, that we have learned from the slftwar reliability analysis of a large switching software composed of functional blocks which form slotware units. To determine the time of management activity related to sopftware reliability growth, we review the process of detection and correction of software failures. Also we apply the two softwre reliability frowth model, Goel-Okumoto and S-shaped model, to estimate the global software reliability growth to a set of failure found during period of the system test. The analysis methods and results can be applied to other large software development projects.

  • In this paper, we propose a software quality measurement metrics of ISO / IEC 25023, which is newly proposed for software quality evaluation, to compare the difference with ISO / IEC 9126-2 which was used for software quality evaluation. In this paper, we propose a method for evaluating the quality of reliability based on the software reliability growth model among the eight quality characteristics presented in ISO / IEC 25023. Based on ISO / IEC 25023, software-quality evaluations demonstrate that there is some risk in evaluating reliability when based on data.

  • The switching system software is large scale, real-time multi-task system which requires high reliability. The reliability assessment of large-scale software is very important for the success of software development project. For this raeson, the software quality measurement is much more important. In this paper, we have learned about the software reliability, metho of the analysis of failure data and estimation of software quality. To estimate the software reliability, using the failure data found during of the system test. We apply the two software reliability growth models, named Goel-Okumoto(G-O) and S-shaped model, to estimate the software reliability. Also, we compared with the results and we reviewed fully not only development cycle but validation and verification of the test data, for each software versions. This paper presents a software reliability model that suitale the software development project and the activeity of quality control for the switching system.

  • Korea Railroad Research Institute(KRRI) developed the Driverless Rubber Tired Korea-AGT(Model: K-AGT) from 1999 to 2004. We have finished the safety and performance tests of K-AGT. Data obtained from this testing can be used to evaluate the growth of reliability. The most widely used traditional growth tracking model is included as IEC International standard. With the tracking model all corrective actions are incorporated during test, called test-fix-test. In the test-fix-test strategy problem modes are found during testing and corrective actions for these problems are incorporated during testing. In this paper, we demonstrated reliability analysis using growth model of driverless rubber tired K-AGT system to prove reliability of development system. Therefore, we introduce the well-known NHPP model and analyze a reliability growth using ReliaSoft's RGA software.

  • This paper proposes a new non-homogeneous Poisson process software reliability growth model based on the coverage information. The new model incorporates the coverage information in the fault detection process by assuming that only the faults in the covered constructs are detectable. Since the coverage growth behavior depends on the testing strategy, the fault detection process is first modeled for the general testing strategy and then realized for the uniform testing. Finally the model for the uniform testing is empirically evaluated by applying it to real data sets.

  • This paper first discusses the existing non-homogeneous Poisson process(NHPP) software reliability growth model(SRGM) frameworks with respect to capability of representing software reliability growth phenomenon. As an enhancement of representational capability a new general coverage-based NHPP SRGM framework is developed. Issues associated with application of the new framework are then considered.

  • Bayesian inference and model selection method for software reliability growth models are studied. Software reliability growth models are used in testing stages of software development to model the error content and time intervals between software failures. In this paper, could avoid multiple integration using Gibbs sampling, which is a kind of Markov Chain Monte Carlo method to compute the posterior distribution. Bayesian inference for general order statistics models in software reliability with diffuse prior information and model selection method are studied. For model determination and selection, explored goodness of fit (the error sum of squares), trend tests. The methodology developed in this paper is exemplified with a software reliability random data set introduced by of Weibull distribution(shape 2 & scale 5) of Minitab (version 14) statistical package.

  • Coverage-based NHPP SRGMs have been introduced in order to incorporate the coverage growth behavior into the NHPP SRGMs. The coverage growth function representing the coverage growth behavior during testing is thus an essential factor of the coverage-based NHPP SRGMs. This paper proposes a class of discrete time coverage growth functions and illustrates its application to real data sets.

  • 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.

  • We propose a software-reliability growth model incoporating the amount of testing effort expended during the software testing phase. The time-dependent behavior of testing effort expenditures is described by a Weibull curve. Assuming that the error detection rate to the amount of testing effort spent during the testing phase is proportional to the current error content, a software-reliability growth model is formulated by a nonhomogeneous Poisson process. Using this model the method of data analysis for software reliability measurement is developed. After defining a software reliability, we discuss the relations between testing time and reliability and between duration following failure fixing and reliability are studied in this paper. The release time making the testing cost to be minimum is determined through studying the cost for each condition. Also, the release time is determined depending on the conditions of the specified reliability. The optimum release time is determined by simultaneously studying optimum release time issue that determines both the cost related time and the specified reliability related time.
