The failure of a computer system because of a software failure can lead to tremendous losses to society; therefore, software reliability is a critical issue in software development. As software has become more prevalent, software reliability has also become a major concern in software development. We need to predict the fluctuations in software reliability and reduce the cost of software testing: therefore, a software development process that considers the release time, cost, reliability, and risk is indispensable. We thus need to develop a model to accurately predict the defects in new software products. In this paper, we propose a new non-homogeneous Poisson process (NHPP) software reliability model, with S-shaped growth curve for use during the software development process, and relate it to a fault detection rate function when considering random operating environments. An explicit mean value function solution for the proposed model is presented. Examples are provided to illustrate the goodness-of-fit of the proposed model, along with several existing NHPP models that are based on two sets of failure data collected from software applications. The results show that the proposed model fits the data more closely than other existing NHPP models to a significant extent. Finally, we propose a model to determine optimal release policies, in which the total software system cost is minimized depending on the given environment
