Abstract

Component can be integrated into a standard software process by incorporating a reuse activity. Component-based Software Engineering (CBSE) is based on the idea to develop software systems by selecting appropriate off-the-shelf components and then assemble them with well-defined software architecture. One of the main issues in building Component-Based Software (CBS) is to maintain its quality in which reliability play a vital role. This paper presents the evolution of CBSE from traditional approach to enhance the reliability of CBS, and the related work in the field of reliability estimation for CBS. Finally, this paper presents the evaluation of reliability estimation methods for CBS.Keywords: Reliability, component-based software engineering, traditional approach, CIG, interaction ratio, probability of failure of interaction, average number of failure interactionCite this ArticleAkanksha Chaudhary, Pradeep Tomar.
