Mathematical Model of Human Reliability: Analyzing the Impact of Human Factors on Software Quality

Abstract

Reliability engineering focuses oncritical hardware parts of the system. Since the widespread use of digitalintegrated circuit technology, software has become an increasingly criticalpart of most electronics and, hence, nearly all present day systems. Improvingthe quality of software under development need to be considered from theviewpoint of improving or removing the human errors resulting due to variedhuman behaviors. Errors occurring during the development of the software haveimpact of human personality factors. Thus, human reliability focuses on thehuman factors that may affect the quality of the ultimate product underdevelopment and the ways of improving these errors.
