Summary :

Software inspection is a widely acknowledged effective quality improvement method in software development by detecting defects involved in software artifacts and removing them. In research on software inspection, constructing computer supported inspection systems is a major topic in the field. A lot of systems have been reported. However few inspection support systems for model diagrams, especially UML diagrams, have been emerged. We identified four key requirements an inspection support system for UML diagrams should have. They are as follows: 1) direct annotations are given to model diagrams, 2) version management is provided so that evolution of artifacts can be managed, 3) the whole inspection process should be supported, 4) horizontal and vertical readings are supported. This paper describes design and implementation of our inspection support system for UML diagrams to realize the four requirements.
