Simulation Methods for Parameter Estimation of Inflection S-Shaed Software Reliability Growth Model
The inflection S-shaped software reliability growth model (SRGM) proposed by Ohba(1984) is one of the most commonly used SRGM. One purpose of this paper is to estimate the parameters of Ohbas SRGM by applying the Markov chain Monte Carlo techniques to carry out a Bayesian estimation procedures. This paper also considers the optimal software release problem with regard to the expected software cost under this model based on the Bayesian approach. The proposed methods are shown to be quite flexible in many situations and the statistical inference for unknown parameters of interests is readily obtained. Numerical examples are given using the simulated data as well as the real data.
