Integration of software reliability into systems reliability optimization
نویسنده
چکیده
of Section II Section II, "A Comparative Study of Heuristic Reliability Optimization Methods" investigates the effectiveness of a mixed-integer programming method. This method is a combination of the heuristic redundancy method and the sequential search method. The heuristic method determines the integer variables (number of redundancies) by assuming that the real variables (reliability level) are known. The sequential search method determines the real variables. At each

Reliability optimization problems with multiple constraints under fuzziness
In reliability optimization problems diverse situation occurs due to which it is not always possible to get relevant precision in system reliability. The imprecision in data can often be represented by triangular fuzzy numbers. In this manuscript, we have considered different fuzzy environment for reliability optimization problem of redundancy. We formulate a redundancy allocation problem for a...
متن کاملOptimal Allocation of Testing Resources for Modular Software Systems
In this paper, based on software reliability growth models with generalized logistic testing-effort function, we study three optimal resource allocation problems in modular software systems during testing phase: 1) minimization of the remaining faults when a fixed amount of testing-effort and a desired reliability objective are given, 2) minimization of the required amount of testing-effort whe...
متن کاملA Heuristic Model for Estimating Component-Based Software System Reliability Using Ant Colony Optimization
Most software reliability models for component-based software systems (CBSSs) depend on either the system architecture or component reliability and glue code reliability. It is important to optimize the usage of paths to obtain more accurate estimates of CBSS reliability. By using bio-inspired optimization techniques that are currently being developed, we can find the value of the most-used pat...
متن کاملReliability Maximization of Component-Based Software Systems
Most of the previously reported literature focused primarily on the reliability evaluation and prediction of component–based software systems, rather than exploring cost/reliability tradeoffs among competing architectural alternatives. A few techniques which treat the subject of reliability optimization assume the system to be series–parallel, an assumption that does not hold even in the case o...

This paper presents a model for optimizing both software and hardware reliability for embedded systems under cost and multiple reliability constraints. Previously, most optimization models have been developed for hardware-only or software-only systems by assuming the hardware, if any, has perfect reliability. In addition they assume that failures for each hardware or software component is stati...
