Optimal Release Policies for Software Reliability Growth Model (SRGM) With Maintenance Costs

A component based or module-based software system is considered in which the software reliability growth model (SRGM) follows a mixed distribution. We address the problem of determining the optimal testing time of software so that the total maintenance costs of the software could be minimized and a...
