Assessing Pareto Type II Software Reliability using SPC
نویسندگان
چکیده
Software reliability is one of the most important characteristics of software quality. Its measurement and management technologies employed during software life cycle are essential for producing and maintaining quality/reliable software systems. It can also be monitored efficiently using Statistical Process Control (SPC). It assists the software development team to identify and actions to be taken during software failure process and hence, assures better software reliability. In this paper we propose a control mechanism based on the cumulative observations of Interval domain data using mean value function of Pareto type II distribution, which is based on Non-Homogenous Poisson Process (NHPP). The maximum likelihood estimation approach is used to estimate the unknown parameters of the model. We also present an analysis of failure data sets at a particular point. General Terms Software failure data, Mean value function.

Assessing Software Reliability Based on NHPP Using SPC
Software reliability in the software development process is an important issue. Software process improvement helps in finishing with reliable software product. In this field, SPC (Statistical process control) is a method of process management through application of statistical analysis, which involves and includes the defining, measuring, controlling, and improving of the processes. In measurin...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of Assessing Software Reliability using SPC: An MMLE Approach
The Modified Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MMLE) of the parameters of Exponential and Half Logistic distributions are considered and compared. An analytical approximation is used instead of linear approximation for a function which appears in Maximum Likelihood equation. These estimates are shown to perform better, in the sense of simplicity of calculation than the one based on linear approxim...
متن کاملCONSTANT STRESS ACCELERATED LIFE TESTING DESIGNWITH TYPE-II CENSORING SCHEME FOR PARETO DISTRIBUTION USING GEOMETRIC PROCESS
In many of the studies concerning Accelerated life testing (ALT), the log linear function between life and stress which is just a simple re-parameterization of the original parameter of the life distribution is used to obtain the estimates of original parameters but from the statistical point of view, it is preferable to work with the original parameters instead of developing inferences for the...
متن کاملOptimal sample size and censoring scheme in progressively type II censoring based on Fisher information for the Pareto distribution
One of the most common censoring methods is the progressive type-II censoring. In this method of censoring, a total of $n$ units are placed on the test, and at the time of failure of each unit, some of the remaining units are randomly removed. This will continue to record $m$ failure times, where $m$ is a pre-determined value, and then the experiment ends. The problem of determining the optimal...
متن کاملSome Characterization Results on Generalized Pareto Distribution Based on Progressive Type-II Right Censoring
The progressive censoring scheme is a method of data collecting in reliability and life testing which has been of intensified interest in recent years. In the present paper, we prove some characterization results on generalized Pareto distribution based upon the independency and expected values of some functions of progressive type-II right censored order statistics.
