A survey of software reliability measurement tools

Abstract

The results are given of a survey of software reliability measurement tools performed for the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) Space Based Observation Systems (SBOS) Committee on Standards (COS). This survey is part of an effort to develop a standard for software reliability measurement. Surveys were completed on four tools. This information is presented, along with partial information on three other known tools. The need for critical evaluation and review of these tools is stressed and a brief description of planned work in this area is presented.<>
