ABSTRACT: This paper introduces a trustworthy model, and a trustworthy analysis approach for component-
based software based on IMC (Interactive Markov Chains) at the architectural level. Conventional approaches
are inadequate to model the behavior of a realistic software application which is likely to be made up of several
interacting parts. For this reazon, we utilize characteristics of software architectural styles to assess software
reliability. Moreov ...
