Software Crisis Software crisis was a term used in the early days of computing science. The term was used to describe the impact of rapid increases in computer power and the complexity of the problems which could be tackled. In essence‚ it refers to the difficulty of writing correct‚ understandable‚ and verifiable computer programs. The roots of the software crisis are complexity‚ expectations‚ and change. The major cause of the software crisis is that the machines have become several orders

1. The “crisis of confidence” on the public accounting profession was not something that happened overnight and it is not the fault of one group of people or individuals.

probabilistic approach to finding failure-causing inputs based on Bayesian estimation. According to our probabilistic insights of software testing‚ the test case generation algorithms are developed by Markov chain Mote Carlo (MCMC) methods. Dissimilar to existing random testing schemes such as adaptive random testing‚ our approach can also utilize the prior knowledge on software testing. In experiments‚ we compare effectiveness of our MCMC-based random testing with both ordinary random testing and adaptive

Software Metric Software metric is a measure of some property of a piece of software or its specifications. Since quantitative measurements are essential in all sciences‚ there is a continuous effort by computer science practitioners and theoreticians to bring similar approaches to software development. The goal is obtaining objective‚ reproducible and quantifiable measurements‚ which may have numerous valuable applications in schedule and budget planning‚ cost estimation‚ quality assurance testing
