TERMINOLOGY ISSUES RELATED TO RELIABILITY OF PROGRAMS AND SOFTWARE

Abstract

This article deals with the elaboration of definition of software reliability. This task is considered within the context of a generic terminological problem arisen due to the necessity to coordinate the Russian terminology with the definitions used in international practice. The paper represents a list of definitions of software dependability assumed to be a complex property. Several software properties specifying reliability are considered. The article also contains the table of applicability of these properties to describe the reliability of various types of software programs.
