Abstract :
In this paper an application of Logarithmic Poisson Execution Time Model to the software product MIDAS is presented. In order to cope with the maintenance effort we predict an index of user´s satisfaction according to the failure intensity predicted by the model. A trade-off between maintenance task and user´s satisfaction achieved
