This article presents parameter estimation of phase-type (PH) distribution. PH distribution is widely used in model-based performance evaluation such as reliability and queueing system, and is defied by an absorbing continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC). Since non-Markovian model can be approximated by a CTMC by replacing general distributions with PH distributions, the parameter estimation is a challenging issue in stochastic modeling. We focus on the statistical inference algorithms to estimate not only the parameters of PH distribution with grouped, truncated and missing data but also the probability density function, and give two examples of PH fitting in reliability engineering.

“…Recently, Kapur et al (2013) developed an optimal control theoretic based cost optimization model and proposed that the optimal release time of the software is the time point where the total cost incurred due to correction coincides with the cost of detection maintaining the strict reliability constraint. Peng et al (2014) proposed the optimal release policy under different criteria namely reliability, cost and mixed criterion. To determine the release time of software, we have considered the detection cost and correction cost and obtained an optimal time to release the software.…”

Fault detection process (FDP) and Fault correction process (FCP) are important phases of software development life cycle (SDLC). It is essential for software to undergo a testing phase, during which faults are detected and corrected. The main goal of this article is to allocate the testing resources in an optimal manner to minimize the cost during testing phase using FDP and FCP under dynamic environment. In this paper, we first assume there is a time lag between fault detection and fault correction. Thus, removal of a fault is performed after a fault is detected. In addition, detection process and correction process are taken to be independent simultaneous activities with different budgetary constraints. A structured optimal policy based on optimal control theory is proposed for software managers to optimize the allocation of the limited resources with the reliability criteria. Furthermore, release policy for the proposed model is also discussed. Numerical example is given in support of the theoretical results.Growing Science Ltd. All rights reserved. 6
