چکیده
This paper describes how MEADEP [SoHaR00], a system level dependability prediction tool, and SMERFS [Farr93], a software reliability growth prediction tool can be used together to predict system reliability, and availability growth) for complex systems. The Littlewood/Verrall model is used to predict reliability growth from software test data. This prediction is integrated into a system level Markov model that incorporates WAN (Internet) service interruptions, hardware failures and recoveries, redundancy, coverage failures, and capacity. The results of the combined model can be used to predict the contribution of additional testing upon availability, the economic value of additional testing, and a variety of other figures of merit that support management decisions.

متن کاملRisk Analysis in E-commerce via Fuzzy Logic
This paper describes the development of a fuzzy decision support system (FDSS) for the assessment of risk in E-commerce (EC) development. A Web-based prototype FDSS is suggested to assist EC project managers in identifying potential EC risk factors and the corresponding project risks. A risk analysis model for EC development using a fuzzy set approach is proposed and incorporated into the FDSS....
