摘要:In recent years, many software
development organizations have been assessing and analyzing their software
product’s reliability/quality and judging whether the software product is
releasable by using Software Reliability Growth Models (SRGMs) at the final
stage of software development. The usage of SRGMs originates in the advantage that
various reliability analysis results based on the SRGMs can be acquired easily.
However, it is very difficult for general software project managers to grasp
the achievement level of reliability/quality based on its analysis results
because some sort of professional knowledge is required in order to understand
the information on the attainment progress of software product’s
reliability/quality. Moreover, it is also difficult for software project
managers and inspectors who do not deeply comprehend the details of their
project to evaluate the degree of software reliability and quality, if they
assess it without grasping the live development situation and only see the
documents submitted from their staff. In this paper, we propose a new analysis
concept for assessing the software product’s reliability/quality, and
illustrate the output results obtained by a tool, the SafeMan.
