  • Abstract
    In this paper we examine the quantitative software attributes that are known to be related to software faults and subsequently software failures. The object is to develop design guidelines based on these quantitative attributes that will assist the evaluation of alternatives in the software design process. In order for the several design alternatives to provide meaningful input to the design process, the software system must first be characterized in terms of a series of operational profiles of its projected use
