                 reliability modeling and its application in software
                 development by S. H. Kan (see ibid., no. 3, p. 351-62,
                 1991). We focus on the initial stages of a reliability
                 modeling process, as decisions here will often
                 influence the later stages of an analysis. We also
                 outline the use of the two-parameter Weibull
                 distribution as a fundamental part of the modeling
                 process, the estimation from field data of the
                 parameters thus introduced, the interpretation of these
                 results and further assessment possible with the field
                 data, and the potential consequence for subsequent
                 stages of the modeling process.",
