Abstract
Reliability is probably the most crucial factor to put ones hand up for in any engineering process. Quantitatively, reliability gives a measure (quantity) of quality, and the quantity can be properly engineered using appropriate reliability engineering process. Software Reliability Modeling has been one of the much-attracted research domains in Software Reliability Engineering, to estimate the current state as well as predict the future state of the software system reliability. This paper aims to raise awareness about the usefulness and importance of simulation in support of software reliability modeling and engineering. Simulation can be applied in many critical and touchy areas and enables one to address issues before they these issues become problems. This paper brings to fore some key concepts in simulation-based software reliability modeling. This paper suggests that the software engineering community could exploit simulation to much greater advantage which include cutting down on software development costs, improving reliability, narrowing down the gestation period of software development, fore-seeing the software development process and the software product itself and so on.
