Abstract— Software components embedded in ubiquitous systems, especially those using wireless networking, are subject to unpredictable behaviors inherent to using these systems i...
The software engineering community has introduced component and connector concepts to support architecture-based software descriptions. However, there still exists a gap in transi...
The parameters in these software reliability models are usually directly obtained from the field failure data. Due to the dynamic properties of the system and the insufficiency of...
