摘要:Software Reliability is an important component of software quality. A number of software reliabilitymodels have been proposed since 1970s, but there is no single model that can be used in all thesituations. To reduce the risk, it is better to experiment with the model of the system rather than with thesystem itself. Simulation, offers an attractive alternative to analytical models as it describes a systembeing characterized in terms of its ar tifacts, events, interrelationships and interactions in such a waythat one may perform experiments on the model, rather than on the system itself. Simulation strives forachieving its goals but it does have certain limitations. This research paper focuses on the goals andlimitations of using simulation in software reliability
