Software Reliability Modeling with Simultaneous 2-Types of Imperfect Debugging Activities
Shinji Inoue, Shigeru Yamada (Tottori Univ.)
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) A software reliability model is known as one of the mathematical models to assess software reliability in testing and operation phases quantitatively, and has been applied for practical use. Among the software reliability models, a software reliability growth model (SRGM) which describes software failure-occurrence or fault-detection phenomenon as the software reliability growth process can be roughly classified into the following two models: perfect and imperfect debugging models. In an actual testing phase, we can consider that debugging activities do not always remove faults perfectly. Therefore, the imperfect debugging model is an ideal one for a practical software reliability assessment. Under the imperfect debugging environment, we can consider two types of imperfect debugging activities, such as the activities introducing new faults and the activities introducing no new faults. In this paper, we discuss software reliability growth models considering the two types of imperfect debugging activities, and show numerical examples of our imperfect debugging models by using actual fault count data.
