This paper presents a new stochastic model for determining the optimal release time for a computer software in testing phase, taking account of the debugging time lag. In the earlier works, most of software release models were considered, but it was assumed that an error detected can be removed instantaneously. In other words, none discussed quantitatively the effect of the software maintenance action in the optimal software release time. Main purpose of this work is to relate the optimal software release policy with the arrival-service process on the software operation phase by users. We use the Non-Homogeneous Poisson Process (NHPP) type of software reliability growth models as the software error detection phenomena and obtain the optimal software release policies minimizing the expected total software costs. As a result, the usage circumstance of a software in operation phase gives a monotone effect to the software release planning.
