title = "Validation of a methodology for quantitatively assessing software quality",
abstract = "Software-based digital systems are progressively replacing analog systems in safety-critical applications including nuclear power plant. However the ability to predict their quality and reliability is not well understood and needs further study. A first step towards systematic resolution of this issue was presented in a recent software engineering measure study. In that study a set of software engineering measures were ranked with respect to their ability in predicting software quality and reliability through an expert opinion elicitation process. This study also proposed a concept of Reliability Prediction System (RePS) to bridge the gap between software engineering measures and software quality and reliability. The research presented in this paper validates the rankings obtained and the concept of RePS proposed in the previous study.",
