Software Reliability: An Order Statistics Approach using SPC
نویسندگان
چکیده
Control charts are widely used for process monitoring. Software reliability process can be monitored efficiently by using Statistical Process Control (SPC). It assists the software development team to identify failures and actions to be taken during software failure process and hence, assures better software reliability. In this paper we proposed a control mechanism based on order statistics of the cumulative quantity between observations of time domain failure data using mean value function of Exponential imperfect debugging, which is based on Non Homogenous Poisson Process (NHPP). The Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method is used to derive the point estimators of the distribution.

Traditional statistical analysis methods account for natural variation but require aggregation of measurements over time,which can delay decision making.Statistical process control (SPC) is a branch of statistics that combines rigorous time series analysis methods with graphical presentation of data,often yielding insights into the data more quickly and in a way more understandble to lay decisi...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of Assessing Software Reliability using SPC: An MMLE Approach
The Modified Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MMLE) of the parameters of Exponential and Half Logistic distributions are considered and compared. An analytical approximation is used instead of linear approximation for a function which appears in Maximum Likelihood equation. These estimates are shown to perform better, in the sense of simplicity of calculation than the one based on linear approxim...

متن کاملMonitoring Software Reliability using Statistical Process control: An MMLE approach
This paper consider an MMLE (Modified Maximum Likelihood Estimation) based scheme to estimate software reliability using exponential distribution. The MMLE is one of the generalized frameworks of software reliability models of Non Homogeneous Poisson Processes (NHPPs). The MMLE gives analytical estimators rather than an iterative approximation to estimate the parameters. In this paper we propos...
