Abstract

At present, the open source software (OSS) development paradigm is rapidly spreading. In order to consider the effect of each software component on the reliability of a system developed in a distributed environment such as an open source software project, we apply AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) and ANP (Analytic Network Process) which are well-established decision-making methods. We also propose a method of reliability assessment based on the software reliability growth models incorporating the interaction among the components. Moreover, we analyze actual software fault count data to show numerical examples of software reliability assessment for a concurrent distributed development environment. Furthermore, we consider an efficient and effective method of software reliability assessment for actual OSS projects.
