The software testing process basically aims at building confidence in the software for its use in real world applications. The reliability of a software system is always important to us. As we carry out the error detection and correction phenomenon on our software, the reliability of the software grows. With an aim to model this growth in the software reliability, many formulations in the form ...

Software reliability growth models were used since long time to access the quality of the software which was developed. Past few decades several papers describes reliability growth phenomenon. As the time progress, the number of errors detection and correction also increases. A Large effort is required in testing to increases the rate of detection and correction of error to increase the reliabi...

Software Reliability growth models are helping the software society in predicting and analyzing the software product in terms of quality. In this context several software reliability growth models are proposed in the literature. Majority of models concentrated on fault detection process, ignoring the correction. Error detection, correction and dependency are the important phenomenon for the sof...

This paper introduces a moving average reliability growth model to describe the evolution of component-based software. In this model, the reliability of a system is a function of the reliabilities of its constituent components. The moving average provides a trend indicator to depict reliability growth movement within the evolution of a series of component enhancements. The moving average can re...

We tackle two problems of interest to the software assurance community. Firstly, existing models of software development (such as the waterfall and spiral models) are oriented towards one-off software development projects, while the growth of mass market computing has led to a world in which most software consists of packages which follow an evolutionary development model. This leads us to ask ...

Software Reliability is one of the key factors in the software development process. Software Reliability is estimated using reliability models based on Non Homogenous Poisson Process. In most of the literature the Software Reliability is predicted only in testing phase. So it leads to wrong decision-making concept. In this paper, two Software Reliability concepts, testing and operational phase ...

The applications of computer systems have been increased immensely during the last few decades and the system reliability is major concern which is depends upon reliability of software and hardware components. Software testing is quality assurance process which confirms that the product is error free and reliable. The reliability of software is major quality attribute which ensure failu...
