Software fault prediction tool
Proceedings of the 19th international symposium on Software testing and analysis, 2010We have developed an interactive tool that predicts fault likelihood for the individual files of successive releases of large, long-lived, multi-developer software systems. Predictions are the result of a two-stage process: first, the extraction of current and historical properties of the system, and second, application of a negative binomial ...

A different view of fault prediction
29th Annual International Computer Software and Applications Conference (COMPSAC'05), 2005We investigated a different mode of using the prediction model to identify the files associated with a fixed percentage of the faults. The tester could ask the tool to identify which files are likely to contain the bulks of faults, with the tester selecting any desired percentage of faults. Again the tool would return a list ordered in decreasing order

Programmer-based fault prediction
Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Predictive Models in Software Engineering, 2010Background: Previous research has provided evidence that a combination of static code metrics and software history metrics can be used to predict with surprising success which files in the next release of a large system will have the largest numbers of defects.

Predicting fault detection effectiveness
Proceedings Fourth International Software Metrics Symposium, 2002Regression methods are used to model software fault detection effectiveness in terms of several product and testing process measures. The relative importance of these product/process measures for predicting fault detection effectiveness is assessed for a specific data set.

Journal of Systems and Software, 1995
Abstract Cost-effective and timely software development methods are essential today as software costs and backlogs escalate while applications are developed in rapidly changing environments. Focusing testing efforts on those portions of the code with the largest number of faults can reduce development costs and time, but requires prediction of the ...

On the Automation of Software Fault Prediction
Testing: Academic & Industrial Conference - Practice And Research Techniques (TAIC PART'06), 2006This paper discusses the issues involved in building a practical automated tool to predict the incidence of software faults in future releases of a large software system. The possibility of creating such a tool is based on the authors experience in analyzing the fault history of several large industrial software projects, and constructing statistical ...

An empirical study of some software fault prediction techniques for the number of faults prediction
Soft Computing, 2016During the software development process, prediction of the number of faults in software modules can be more helpful instead of predicting the modules being faulty or non-faulty. Such an approach may help in more focused software testing process and may enhance the reliability of the software system.

The effect of the transient faults in dependability prediction
Microprocessors and Microsystems, 2016Markov chain models are used to evaluate the dependability properties (reliability, safety, availability, maintainability etc.) of the mission-critical systems. Dependability models are often focused only on the basic stuck-at faults. On the other hand the transient faults are present in the operational environment but not included in the dependability

A fault prediction module for a fault tolerant NoC operation
Sixteenth International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design, 2015Each new production technology of integrated circuit (IC) drives more transistors area reduction, implying smaller and denser circuits. This scenario allows integrating several Processing Elements (PEs) into the same IC with efficient communication architecture such as the scalable topologies of Network on Chip (NoC).

A Taxonomy of Metrics for Software Fault Prediction
2020 46th Euromicro Conference on Software Engineering and Advanced Applications (SEAA), 2020Researchers in the field of Software Fault Prediction (SFP) make use of software metrics to build predictive models, for example, by means of machine learning and statistical techniques. The number of metrics used for SFP has increased dramatically in the last few decades.
