Synopsis:

Broader in scope than other books, this compendium is the last word on software reliability engineering from some of the field's most prestigious innovators at institutions like AT&T, NCR, and IBM. Using this guide, software developers, designers, and project managers, high-level applications programmers and designers, and students will be able to tap into an unparalleled repository of accumulated experience and expertise. Besides including pertinent background information, this handbook covers the latest techniques and practices in a wide range of applications, including metrics, testing schemes, and fault-tolerant software. Benchmark case studies from major companies also are included. Far and away, the most comprehensive and up-to-date professional resource available.

From the Back Cover: The definitive guide to today's most-used software reliability techniques and solutions. Handbook of Software Reliability Engineering Featuring contributions from the worl'ds leading reliability experts, this book/CD-ROM package offers you the most comprehensive and up-to-date resource on software reliability engineering available today. The Handbook takes you step by step through software reliability measurement and prediction. . the attributes and metrics of product design, development process, system architecture, software operational environment, and their effects on reliability. . and the application of this information in software development, acquisiton, use, and maintenance. You'll find detailed coverage of: Software reliability engineering techinique involving modeling, measurement, process framework, systems operations, data collection, and more; Benchmark case studies from AT&T, JPL, Bellcore, IBM, Nortel, NASA, HItachi, ALCATEL, and other European organizations; Emerging research methods including software metrics, testing schemes, fault-tolerant software, fault-tree anaylsis, process simulation, and neural networks. This indispensible reference comes packaged with an MC/DOS CD-ROM loaded with more than $250 worth of popular software reliability tools: SMERFS, CASRE, and SoftRel-plus a valuable repository of software project failure data sets.
