Abstract :
By analyzing actuality of maintainability, the meaning and process of maintainability growth are explained. Then a mathematical model of maintainability growth is given and the least square method is adopted to work out the parameters of the model. So a method that is used to assess present maintainability and calculate future maintainability is founded. Finally, with the maintainability growth test data, an example is given to further illustrate the rationality of the method.
