Finite Server Queuing Model with Change-Point and Imperfect Debugging for Software Reliability Assessment

Nan Zhang · International Journal of Security and Its Applications · 2015

Most software reliability growth models (SRGMs) take software faults detected that may be removed immediately into consideration.In fact, it costs often considerable resources to identify the root causes of faults detected and to remove them.In additional, detection effort and correction effort have the great effect on software debugging process.The detection effort function and correction effort function are defined as resource expenditures spent on software debugging process, respectively.In this paper, we investigate software debugging process using the queue theory.We propose finite server queuing models with resource and change-point under imperfect debugging environment.A real software failure project is demonstrated the effectiveness of proposed models, and numerical results demonstrate that new models can provide better fit and prediction.
