Reliability modeling methods used to model combined Software/Hardware systems for the purposes of reliability estimation and allocation needs to accurately assess the interdependence between individual software elements and the hardware and on the platforms on which these software elements execute. The inclusion of hardware reliability into software reliability models increases the complexity of the models. This article provides modeling methods for inclusion of hardware into software reliability analysis.
