Operational profile based reliability assessment of COTS software
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, approaches to assess the reliability of the COTS software for a given or specified operation profile have been analyzed using the proposed methods for White box and Black box approaches. In the black box approach the fragile point analysis is used to assess the reliability of the software, for a given operational profile, using the functional or design specification of the software.

Reliability Analysis of COTS-based Software System
With more emphasis on reuse of software applications, the commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) based software systems have emerged. As a result, reliability analysis of COTS-based software system has gained prominence. The focus of this paper is to provide an overview for the state of the art of COTS-based software system reliability analysis. In this paper, we first describe the definition of COTS ...
متن کاملReliability Assessment of Elementary COTS Software Component
For predicting the reliability of a software application composed third party software components like COTS (Commercial-Off-The-shelf) one has to heavily rely on the reliability values available which may not be always correct. As, there can be several factors which can effect the reliability values for example, the vendors may be biased, it may not be possible to select test cases to execute a...
متن کاملUsing Reliability Models During Testing With Non-Operational Profiles*
Operational profile is a set of relative frequencies of occurrence of the run categories associated with the product and its operational use. During operation system executes a series of runs which are selected from the available run categories at random (but according to the operational profile). Software (and system) reliability growth models model the fault removal process during product tes...
متن کاملScenario-Based Software Reliability Testing Profile for Autonomous Control System
Operational profile is often used in software reliability testing, but it is limited to non-obvious-operation software such as Autonomous Control System. After analyzing the autonomous control system and scenario technology, a scenario-based profile constructing method for software reliability testing is presented. Two levels of scenario-based profile in the paper are introduced: system level a...
متن کاملPrediction of non-functional properties of (Component) COTS-based Systems: A Model for Predicting Software Reliability
On the outset, components or COTS-based systems offers several advantages, including the promise of shorting the development life cycle, reducing costs of software development and faster utilisation of recent technical improvements in software industry in terms of capability, reliability, compatibility, performance and so forth. Many (initially!) believed that developing COTS-based systems woul...
