Adaptive Mean Value Function Based Quality Assessment of Software Reliable Growth Models

Abstract

Software growth models aims for reliability of the application over a period of time. Assessment of such models is of great interest since many faults arises with the models during the operation over a span of time. In this paper a adaptive mean value function based testing and estimation of the parameters were discussed. The proposed approach is also compared against the conventional testing approaches and found that the proposed method able to detect the fault under different scenario and proves to give better performance under a constrained environment.
