TL;DR
Software reliability engineering (SRE) assesses how well software-based products and services meet users' operational needs and uses quantitative methods based on reliability measures to do this assessment, to maximize customer satisfaction.
Abstract
The author traces the US history of invention and technology transfer from the 1700s to the present and asks whether software development can stop being a process-centered cottage industry by the a...

IEEE Transactions on ReliabilityTime-Dependent Error-Detection Rate Model for Software Reliability and Other Performance Measures
1,840 Citations1979Amrit L. Goel, Kazu Okumoto
The failure process is analyzed to develop a suitable meanvalue function for the NHPP to create a stochastic model for the software failure phenomenon based on a nonhomogeneous Poisson process.
Elsevier eBooksSOFTWARE RELIABILITY RESEARCH
1,051 Citations1972Z. Jelinski, P. B. Moranda
The chapter describes the means of predicting mission success on the basis of errors which occur during testing and describes the problems in categorizing software anomalies.
IEEE Transactions on ReliabilityS-Shaped Reliability Growth Modeling for Software Error Detection
850 Citations1983Shigeru Yamada, Mitsuru Ohba +1 more
This paper investigates a stochastic model for a software error detection process in which the growth curve of the number of detected software errors for the observed data is S-shaped.
Journal of Systems and SoftwareSoftware reliability measurement
564 Citations1979Donald Musa
A theory of software reliability based on execution or cpu time, and a concomitant model of the testing and debugging process that permits execution time to be related to calendar time are outlined.
IEEE Transactions on Software EngineeringA theory of software reliability and its application
558 Citations1975Donald Musa
The reliability model that has been developed can be used in making system tradeoffs involving software or software and hardware components and provides a soundly based unit of measure for the comparative evaluation of various programming techniques that are expected to enhance reliability.
Elsevier eBooksPROBABILISTIC MODELS FOR SOFTWARE RELIABILITY PREDICTION
158 Citations1972Martin L. Shooman
A newly developed probabilistic model for predicting software reliability that permits estimation of software reliability before any code is written and allows later updating to improve the accuracy of the parameters when integration or operational tests begin.
IEEE Transactions on Software EngineeringEffects of field service on software reliability
17 Citations1988C.T. Baker
A small number of parameters that determine the relevant characteristics of the service organization are identified, and their effects on the reliability of the program as it is experienced at an average site are analyzed.

The thrust of reliability measurement and analysis is to specify what the customer needs in terms of reliability before a software product is built, to validate that these needs are met before delivery of the product to the customer and to make sure that the customer's needs continue to be met after delivery.
