A number of software reliability models have been proposed for assessing the reliability of a software system.In this paper, we discuss the time-domain and data-domain approaches to software reliability modeling, and classify the previously reported models into these two classes based on their underlying assumptions.The data-domain models are further classi ed into fault-seeding and input domain models, while the time-domain models are further classi ed into homogeneous Markov, non-homogeneous Markov and semi-Markov models.We present some representative models belonging to each of the classes, and then discuss the relative merits and limitations of the time and data-domain approaches.
