Markovian Software Availability Measurement Based on the Number of Restoration Actions
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we construct a software availability model considering the number of restoration actions. We correlate the failure and restoration characteristics of the software system with the cumulative number of corrected faults. Furthermore, we consider an imperfect debugging environment where the detected faults are not always corrected and removed from the system. The time-dependent behavior of the system alternating between up and down states is described by a Markov process. From this model, we can derive quantitative measures for software availability assessment considering the number of restoration actions. Finally, we show numerical examples of software availability analysis. key words: software availability, imperfect debugging, software

User-oriented and -perceived Software Availability Measurement and Assessment with Environmental Factors
Abstract This paper proposes the methods of the operation-oriented software availability measurement and assessment. Considering the difference of the software failure-occurrence phenomena and the restoration characteristics between the testing and the operation phases, we first introduce the environmental factors into the existing Markovian software availability model. Next we discuss the stoc...

Redundancy technique is known as a way to enhance the reliability and availability of non-reparable systems, but for repairable systems, another factor is getting prominent called as the number of maintenance resources. In this study, availability optimization of series-parallel systems is modelled by using Markovian process by which the number of maintenance resources is located into the obje...
