The Utility and Practicality of Quantifying Software Reliability
نویسنده
چکیده
We argue that quantifying software reliability is important in demonstrating that system-level risks are As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP). Furthermore, we demonstrate that such quantification is possible in at least one meaningful case. It is, however, unlikely to be practical in every case. This means it is unlikely to be included as an explicit objective in standards. Hence, for those cases where software reliability can be quantified, merely following a standard may lead to riskreduction opportunities being missed.

متن کاملFactors Influencing Mini-Clinical Evaluation Exercise Scores: A Review Article
Introduction: The Mini-Clinical Evaluation Exercise (Mini-CEX ) is widely used to assess clinical performance because of its practicality. Although initial studies have supported its reliability and validity, the utility of Mini-CEX is under serious debate due to inconsistencies in rater judgments. This study aimed to review the relevant literature on the utility of Mini-CEX in order to find ou...
متن کاملA Dynamic Model for Evaluating the Utility of Railway Transit Corridors; a Case study of Bandar Abbas-Sarakhs Corridor
Currently, road transportation is the main mode of freight transit in Iran and about 90% of freight transit is done through this mode of transportation which is not in line with the transportation policies that based on them 70% of the freight transit should be done through road transportation and 30% of the freight transit should be done through rail transportation. However, Iran's railway net...
متن کاملDesign of Reliability Insurance Scheme Based on Utility Function for Improvement of Distribution Grid Reliability
The regulatory schemes currently used for reliability improvement have weaknesses in the provision of quality services based on the customers’ perspective. These schemes consider the average of the service as a criterion to incentivize or penalize the distribution system operators (DSOs). On the other hand, most DSOs do not differentiate electricity services at the customer level, due to the st...
