Specific Aspects of Financial and Accountancy Software Reliability

Journal Title: Journal of Applied Quantitative Methods - Year 2007, Vol 2, Issue 1

Abstract

The target of the present trend of the software industry is to design and develop more reliable software, even if, in the beginning, this requires larger costs necessary to obtain the level of reliability. It has been found that in the case of software which contain large amounts of components - financial and accounting software are also included here – the actions taken to increase the level of reliability in the operational stage induces a high level of costs. This one is superior to the one that involves obtaining systems of software with an adequate reliability, before releasing them on the market and before using them. Before taking into account the material and financial aspects that involve obtaining the adequate reliability, we must consider the social effects that occur because of the lack of reliability of software. The conclusion is that, if we begin with the idea that a system of accounting software is a fitted and well structured ensemble of different components – from a constructive point of view – which satisfy interconnected needs, the reliability of the entire system depends directly on the reliability of each component.
