Abstract
A new class of software reliability models is proposed, based on practical considerations about the failure process and the influence of debugging on the successive software failure rates. It is assumed that, at each correction, a part of the previous software faults are removed and new faults can be introduced. Several well-known models belong to this class. With some additional assumptions, a simple model is proposed. The maximum likelihood equations for the estimation of its parameters are derived. The model is applied on real data and is compared to usual software reliability models.
