“…An unassuming posture refers to the taking in of an enormous amount of dataindependent of whether or not an hypothesis is available in support of the usefulness of the observations. This manner is distinguished from existing practices that are based on a select count of metrics or static formulas [5,6,7,8]. The observed data is divided into several categories, referred to as packages.…”

The need for a continuous flow of new functionality in a switch necessitates an approach of focused restructureperiodic maintenance of limited sections of sofware. Executing a program of focused restructure has historically been a non-precise undertaking for switching systems. This paper describes an approach for establishing more formal guidelines for identifying switching system software that is more likely to contain fatilts and is hence a candidate for focused restructure. The Sofiare Architecture-Based Analysis (SABA) methodology is described. This methodology enlightens the common black box perspective of a large sofhare system with gray box details, applies a dynamic, sophisticated statistical analysis, and produces an expert discrimination of critical sofware c o~p~l n e n~s within their sofhvare architecture. Finally, a joint trial of Bellcore's SABA to a large AT&T digital switching system is used to illustrate the approach.
