. 2. Explain why a product or system might have an overall reliability that is low even though it is comprised of components that have fairly high reliabilities. 4. A product engineer has developed the following equation for the cost of a system component: C _ (10 P ) 2 ‚ where C is the cost in dollars and P is the probability that the component will operate as expected. The system is composed of two identical components‚ both of which must operate for the system to operate. The engineer

Software reliability modeling has‚ surprisingly to many‚ been around since the early 1970s with the pioneering works of Jelinski and Moranda‚ Shooman‚ and Coutinho. The theory behind software reliability is presented‚ and some of the major models that have appeared in the literature from both historical and applications perspectives are described. Emerging techniques for software reliability research field are also included. The following four key components in software reliability theory and modeling:
