Reliability Growth Modeling

Abstract

Mathematical models describing the changes in system reliability during a development program are called reliability growth models. The intent of the report is to familiarize the reader with reliability growth modeling and to discuss its usage as a tool for program managers. The discussion is supplemented by numerical examples illustrating several models. Also, a review of a number of reliability growth models currently available and a bibliography on reliability growth are given.
