Shubhra Gautam, Deepak Kumar, Lalit Mohan Patnaik · 2018
The demand of highly reliable software systems has resulted in rigorous testing of the software. A major part of the software development cost is assigned to the testing phase. The optimal release time prediction is the biggest challenge for software developers these days. In the literature a number of models have been proposed and lot of study is done towards assessment of software release time. The work carried out in the literature for determination of Software release time problem focuses on the crisp optimization problem and fuzzy optimization problem. This paper discusses the release time problem using neural network. A Fuzzy release time problem is formulated considering maximization of cost and reliability taken as a constraint. The problem is solved with neural network approach and the results are compared with crisp and fuzzy optimized results. The result is also validated on real time data set.
