ABSTRACT
Software reliability techniques are aimed at reducing or eliminat-ing failures in software systems. Reliability in software systems istypically measured during or after system implementation. How-ever, software engineering methodology lays stress on doing the"correct things" early on in the software development lifecycle inorder to curb development and maintenance costs. In this paper, wepropose a framework for reliability estimation of software compo-nents at the level of software architecture.

Software release management for component-based software
Software release management is the process through which software is made available to and obtained by its users. Until now, this process has been relatively straightforward. However, the emergence of component-based software is complicating software ...
Evaluation of Software Architectures Reliability Based on Hypergraph Grammar
COMPSAC '13: Proceedings of the 2013 IEEE 37th Annual Computer Software and Applications ConferenceReliability is becoming a more and more important concern for software architectures. Previous efforts mainly use the reliability model to predict the software reliability at architecture level, but most of these work do not give the formal description ...
Reliability prediction for component-based software architectures
Special issue on: Software architecture - Engineering quality attributesOne of the motivations for specifying software architectures explicitly is the use of high level structural design information for improved control and prediction of software system quality attributes. In this paper, we present an approach for ...
