What is Hampering the Performance of Software Reliability Models? A literature review

摘要

This article explores the critical factors and issues that impede the performance of software reliability modeling science. The literature review indicates that software reliability models have not delivered the desirable deliverables that they are intended to realize. The current work suggests that the reasons for such performance incompetence of the software reliability modeling are attributed to eight major causes. Based upon the findings of the current study, a simple framework is proposed to provide guidelines to developing software organizations in order to improve the performance of software reliability modeling concept.
