Review

Kim R. Fowler,    IEEE Fellow, Consultant

Review is a set of feedback paths within system development. The act of review has two primary objectives: (i) to confirm correct design and development and (ii) to expose and identify problems with design, development, or processes.

This chapter outlines the processes and procedures for various types of reviews, provides the formats for review, and describes when to conduct reviews. It gives examples and templates for minutes, action items, and agendas. It has checklists for preparing and debriefing a formal review and for basic topics to cover in formal design reviews.
