STRAIT
Software Reliability Growth Models tool support
Software Systems Reliability and Resilience
Software systems reliability and resilience are important properties of software systems. We deal with ways to model and predict software failure helping to build more reliable software systems. One of the main contribution is the STRAIT tool to build and integrate software reliability growth models to model cumulative failures of software systems.

Antifragility is an improved resilience approach introduced in 2012 by Professor Nassim Nicholas Taleb in his book entitled: “Antifragile: Things That Gain from Disorder”. The idea behind Antifragility is to appreciate some level of stressors and perturbation and actively “employ” them to get better performance over a longer time horizon.
Our vision is to integrate antifragile mechanisms into critical infrastructure systems to improve the resistance of software systems to failures:
- Seek to inject volatility in critical infrastructure systems to expose their fragilities.
- Enable critical infrastructure systems to take autonomous decisions to move from stable to unstable conditions.
- Enable critical infrastructure systems to survive shocks and dynamically determine their fragilities.
- Use the fragilities of critical infrastructure systems to learn by doing how to thrive as threats vary.
- Exploit Artificial Intelligence (AI) to support the adaptability and evolution of critical infrastructure systems.
- Go beyond the traditional target of resilience by proactively self-adapting and self-organizing the behavior of critical infrastructure systems to changing conditions.
