Software reliability estimation and application based on heterogeneous architectures

Architecture-based software reliability models are established during the early phase of software development.The models can perform a prior analysis of software reliability.It is a basic factor for software architecture change,edition update and upgrade.However,the early architecture-based models are most applied to homogeneous software architectures,which could not satisfy the requirement of multiple architecture software.Multiple architecture styles are firstly analyzed.Then,a heterogeneous architecture-based software reliability model is proposed.Finally,an available example is presented with the model according to the estimation steps.
