Abstract

This paper complements the others presented in this session. It provides additional examples of the success of software reliability modeling culled from the literature. In addition it discusses the practical and theoretical steps which must be pursued to advance software reliability modeling. The main conclusion is that existing software reliability models are adequate for prediction and should now be more widely used.
