Statistical Process Control for Software Inspections
By Don Porter
  
Summary: This paper provides innovative guidelines for inspections SPC. The innovations include:
- Tracking fault density = faults/(amount inspected) rather than the number of faults. Since the number of faults follows a Poisson probability law, the fault density obeys a related exponential distribution.
-Tracking preparation and inspection efficiencies rather than rates. These are defined as (preparation time)/(amount inspected) and (inspection time)/(amount inspected). These variables fit gamma or lognormal distributions quite well. | | |
