چکیده

It is always a very costly process to achieve a high level of reliability in software industry. So it is desirable for an industry to design software with minimum cost and optimal level of reliability. This paper addresses the problem of maximizing reliability of software by minimizing the overall cost of software. The technique deals with selecting various modules of application with optimal reliability of each to obtain desired level of reliability and cost of application. The problem is divided into three sections. Firstly it considered reliability of application as constraint to find optimal cost, secondly the cost is taken as constraint to find maximum amount of reliability for given cost constraint. At last the GA is used to find an optimal solution using both cost and reliability constraints exist.

Exploring cost and reliability tradeoffs in architectural alternatives using a genetic algorithm

The shifting trends in software systems from custom, built to specification, and homogeneous to object oriented and component based have necessitated the development of new approaches for their analysis and evaluation. Correspondingly, the last few years have seen a number of architecture-based techniques employing analytical methods, simulation, and experimentation to characterize the behavior...

Reliability Maximization of Component-Based Software Systems

Most of the previously reported literature focused primarily on the reliability evaluation and prediction of component–based software systems, rather than exploring cost/reliability tradeoffs among competing architectural alternatives. A few techniques which treat the subject of reliability optimization assume the system to be series–parallel, an assumption that does not hold even in the case o...
