From the Back Cover

"Musa...is considered the guru of software reliability
engineering." Michael R. Lyn, Ph.D., Technical Staff, AT&T
Laboratories. The Hands-On Guide to SRE. Spotlighting the practical
steps that you need to apply Software Reliability Engineering to
software development and testing, this first-of-its-kind guide puts
the efficiency-enhancing benefits of SRE within easy reach. Organized
for quick learning and rapid application, this book leads you through
the entire SRE process with the Fone Follower case study, adapted from
a Bell Laboratories product. To enhance understanding, each chapter
features answered FAQs, as well as hands-on exercises for instant
application. The book boils down the core practice of SRE to a one-
or two-day learning process. Even newcomers to Software Reliability
Engineering can quickly discover how to: set quantitative reliability
goals; develop operational profiles; use CASRE to estimate software
reliability; determine operational modes. Also helpful to systems
engineer,s systems architects, developers, and managers, this unique
and valuable tool shows you step-by-step how to deliver the highly
efficient engineered software development and testing procedures
needed in today's fast-moving marketplace.
