Excerpt from A Time-Independent Definition of Software Reliability
Software reliability has been described as a metric which is the probability of operational success of the Because the measurement of software reliability is in principle the modelling of a deterministic process by a probabilistic one, the problem arises as to how to model the uncertainty of the ultimate outcome. When the random variable is chosen to be time, we refer to the implicit definition of reliability as time-dependent. When the random variable is otherwise defined, we will say the definition is time-independent.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book proposes an alternative definition of software reliability, treating it as an extension of the probability of correctness of the software in question. The definition introduced in this book is modifiable by an integer parameter, allowing it to be used to model multiple and distinct notions of reliability, and its values can be approximated with well-chosen test sets. Some key components of this definition include likelihood measurement, discrepancy measurement between actual program behavior and intended program behavior, and parametrization of the external environment. The author demonstrates that this new definition models reliability in a more natural way and provides a useful tool for further research and development in the field of computer software reliability.
