331+;;Quote: during a review, one reviewer paraphrases the code, one reviewer is the moderator, and the author compiles the master list of defects
335 ;;Quote: issues reported across all code inspections: 22% false positives, 60% readability or coding standards, 18% true defects and inefficiencies; studied true defects
338 ;;Quote: two-sessions were no better than single session reviews and took twice as long
338+;;Quote: one reviewer plus author found fewer true defects than two- or four-reviewer teams
342 ;;Quote: review meetings located 30% of the true defects; the remainder were found during preparation; like Humphrey, while Votta studied design inspections
