Reliable software is the need of the hour especially as it is an indispensable part of our new technological world. Many SRGMs have been proposed considering the change point approach in literature. Change point is defined as the point where the fault detection rate changes, it happens due to number of reasons viz, proficiency of the testing team, nature of faults to be detected etc. In this paper we develop a generalized modeling framework incorporating change point discussing the changing nature of fault detection rate and form a related release time problem which minimizes the total cost of the software and maintains a desirable level of reliability. A numerical example is given for the release problem and the proposed models are validated on real software error data to show their goodness of fit and applicability.

In the field of software engineering, optimal scheduling of software is a well-studied concept. However, attention to cost analysis in the field of multi-upgradation is still limited to certain well- known works. In the present work, a mathematical framework for multi-upgraded software under the concept of imperfect debugging has been analyzed. With due consideration of the fact that upgraded version might contain some newly generated bugs and few latent bugs of its preceding version, the cost components have been designed in accordance. The parameter estimates of multi-upgraded software under the influence of imperfect fault removal process are used for optimal determination of release time. For validation purpose, a numerical illustration has been carried out on three releases of software and the optimal release time is estimated accordingly.
