Forecasting software reliability

1991
Computer software fails because of the presence of intellectual faults, ranging from simple coding faults to fundamental design faults. In principle, such faults can be permanently removed when they are detected by failure of the software. Then the software will exhibit reliability growth.

Software reliability measurement

IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, 1990
The measurement and analysis aspects of software reliability are described with the aim of providing software engineers and managers a sense of where and how software reliability measurements can be applied to their projects. Some background for understanding software reliability measurement is provided, and activities associated with measuring and ...

Standards-software reliability handbook: achieving reliable software

Computer, 1992
The results to date of a three-year research effort on software reliability engineering sponsored by the American Institute of Astronautics and Aeronautics (AIAA) are discussed. After a standard for recommended practice for software reliability estimation was approved by the AIAA, a blue-ribbon panel of industry experts was convened to consider the ...

Software Reliability Redux

IEEE Software, 2017
The requirement for high reliability is no longer restricted to a few specialized and proven domains. Instead, ever more functions whose failure can hurt humans and damage property are cropping up in new areas. Avoiding problems and catastrophes in the new software reliability landscape is possible but won't be easy.

Engineering reliable software

Proceedings of 1993 IEEE International Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering, 2002
Software reliability engineering is not only the use of software reliability models and similar techniques, it is the use of sensible engineering principles with cost/benefit analysis throughout the software life cycle to obtain reliable software. The need to have a comprehensive view on software development to engineer reliable software is emphasized.

On the role of software reliability in software engineering

2005
We place reliability in the context of other relevant software qualities and try to define it rigorously. Then we discuss two complementary approaches to reliability: the constructive approach, which tries to produce a-priori reliable software, and the analytic approach, which tries to measure reliability by inspecting software a-posteriori, after its ...

On the Reliability of Software Piracy Statistics

2010 43rd Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, 2010
The Business Software Alliance (BSA) changed its consultant and methodology for measurement of software piracy in 2002-2003. Based on a review of the methodology and empirical analysis, I conclude that the change had systematic effects on published piracy rates.

Software development for reliable software systems

Journal of Systems and Software, 1983
The process of software development has a major influence on the reliability of a software system. The reliability of a software system can be improved by eliminating all the errors that occur during its development. This paper presents, from a tutorial point of view, a methodology of software development that can minimize the number of errors in a ...

Reliable hardware-software architecture

Proceedings of the international conference on Reliable software -, 1975
This paper deals with the problem of reliability in a hardware/software system. More specifically it deals with the strategy used to achieve reliability in a particular hardware/software system built by the author and his colleagues at Carnegie-Mellon University.
