Multi-Criteria Decision Models in Software Reliability (Information Technology, Management and Operations Research Practices)

This book provides insights into contemporary issues and challenges in multi-criteria decision models. It is a useful guide for identifying, understanding and categorising multi-criteria decision models, and ultimately implementing the analysis for effective decision-making.

The use of multi-criteria decision models in software reliability engineering is a relatively new field of study, and this book collects all the latest methodologies, tools and techniques in one single volume. It covers model selection, assessment, resource allocation, release management, up-grade planning, open-source systems, bug tracking system management and defect prediction.

Multi-Criteria Decision Models in Software Reliability: Methods and Applications will cater to researchers, academicians, post-graduate students, software developers, software reliability engineers and IT managers.
