EVALUATION OF RELIABILITY FOR COMPONENT BASED SOFTWARE SYSTEM

In this paper we present a reliability simulation in component based applications. In component - Based Software Engineering we can treat a software system as a combination of interdependent components. The Component_Rel_Sim Algorithm is used to identify reliabilities of components. The simulation is done on the data generated by the Normal distribution ,which describes the nature of failure process. Once the required data is generated the overall reliability of the system is calculated. The estimation of component reliability gives the overall reliability of the system.
