Abstract

In this paper, Software Reliability based on order statistics of Lehmann-Type Laplace Distribution-Type I is framed and an algorithm is generated for the model. The parameters of the distribution are estimated by using profile likelihood method and they are used to estimate the number of faults. A control mechanism is proposed using order statistics of Lehmann-Type Laplace distribution-Type I. The algorithm is tested for the software failure data. It is found that the algorithm works well for the data sets and the detection of failure is done early and frequently at many points. Thus the failures can be eradicated which will increase the life time of the software and in turn increases the software reliability.
