Methods proposed for software reliability prediction are reviewed. A case study is then presented of the analysis of failure data from a Space Shuttle software project to predict the number of failures likely during a mission, and the subsequent verification of these predictions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
