Software systems are present in many safety-critical applications such as power plants, health care systems, air-traffic, etc. They all require high quality, reliability and safety. In this paper, the software system modeling methods for estimating parameters such as failure rate and reliability are presented. The second part of the paper is a case study of a complex software system developed in the LOLA Institute for an external customer.

Key words: software, software reliability, software maintenance, reliability estimation.
