Abstract

The need for improving the reliability of delivered software is becoming increasingly obvious to both the purchasers and producers of today's software systems. As noted by Boehm, the records show many examples of software systems which, when delivered for operational use, either performed in a degraded fashion or failed to perform at all. The results are higher software costs and delays in operational usage.
