A Preliminary Model for Generating Experience Knowledge Based Artifacts

Inspections provide an effective way of acquiring and reusing experience knowledge. Several details, in both the inspection processes and the inspection event itself, can be found that support knowledge management. These artifacts can be, for example, checklists, rules or procedures determined in the inspection process, and they act like knowledge packages. Artifacts can be used as experience knowledge collecting tools and experience knowledge transferring tools, as well as software process development tools. This paper focuses on the knowledge management aspects of software inspection and presents a preliminary model for how artifacts can be developed so that their knowledge management based aspects are taken into consideration. This preliminary model has been used and evaluated in partner companies when generating checklists. It has been proven to work in this context and there are indications that the model also works with other kinds of artifacts found within software engineering ...
