Abstract

Often, the earliest design decisions in product development have significant impact on the operational and support (O&S) aspects of the software product. These support considerations can best be handled concurrently to the planning, requirements definition, and high level design activities. A number of techniques and guidelines are developed in this paper to ensure a focus on reliability and maintainability during the software development process. Some discussion is made of the metrics and measurement of software reliability and maintainability
