A Study of Software Reliability Growth Models

An Examination of Software Reliability Growth Models and their Classification

Abstract

The main objective is to present a classification of reliability models that would be useful indetermining which of the existing model to use in given software development environment in this studyimportance is given on comparison of existing software reliability models. The analytical models are mostlyuseful in estimating and monitoring reliability. The models can help software testingdebugging managersto make predictions about the anticipated future reliability of software under growth and the study in whichdiscussed about summary of NHPP based continuous time software reliability growth models, NHPP basedsoftware reliability growth models , development history of software reliability growth model, softwarereliability models classification.
