Software-Reliability

Question 1

The following table shoes the time between failures for a software system

The reliability of the system for one hour of operation assuming an exponential model is

A
0.45
B
0.63
C
0.84
D
0.95
Question 1 Explanation: 
MIBF = ∑(Start of downtime – Start of uptime)/No. of failures
MIBF = (6+4+8+5+6)/5 = 29/5
The probability or reliability that the product will work for a defined period of time without failure is given by
R(T) = exp(-T/MTBF); T = 1 hour
R(1) = e(-1/(29/5)) = e(-5/29) = 0.84
Correct Answer: C
