In this article a survey through the traditional software reliability estimation and prediction models has been performed. The activities related to software reliability modelling have been divided to estimation and prediction. Several arguments proving unsatisfactory quality of the results generated by the traditional models have been pointed. Main results of studies of software reliability modelling with usage of modern methods have been discussed. (original abstract)

W pracy dokonano przeglądu tradycyjnych modeli szacowania i prognozowania niezawodności oprogramowania. Dokonano podziału działań związanych z modelowaniem niezawodności oprogramowania na szacowanie i prognozowanie. Przytoczono argumenty świadczące często o niezadowalającej jakości wyników generowanych przez tradycyjne modele. Omówiono najważniejsze wynik badań modelowania niezawodności oprogramowania z zastosowaniem nowoczesnych metod. (abstrakt oryginalny)
