摘要：Reliability growth modeling plays an important role in measuring and controlling software quality. One main approach to reliability growth modeling is based on the statistical correlation of observed failure intensities versus estimated ones by the use of statistical models. This research concentrates on identifying the best distribution from list of important life data distributions. The failure data collected are from apache web server which is important and popular Open Source Software (OSS) product. The objective of the research is to determine which of the available models best fits the failure data of the selected OSS products as well as analyzing the reliability analysis pattern based on available failure history. The outcome reveals that overall reliability on the basis of available failure data of Apache2 is very good and this can be one of the reasons of popularity of this version of Apache Web Server.
