  Abstract

In this paper, we propose a solution to the software maintenance problem that is a primary factor of software crisis. We surveyed and analyzed the current software maintenance problems through questionnaires and interviews. As a result, we defined the software maintenance management life cycle and established a fundamental strategies to solve the software maintenance problems efficiently. We also designed a software maintenance management support system to construct an automated software maintenance management tool.Furthermore, to improve the formalization and reliability of the software maintenance management procedure, we defined a cost predictive model using a fixed-single parameter based on comprehensive program sixe for the source code and delivered sffort(person/month). We elaborated the model by considering an experience level of maintainer, a skill-level defined by the manager, and a reliability level required by the model of maintenance management.
