Abstract
One of the most important issues in analyzing safety-critical systems is code verification through an inspection checklist, whose items must be applied to the source code. The attention given to this list will help ensure obedience to good coding rules and represents an important factor in the design of safety-critical systems. This list also helps in the development of non-safety-critical systems, improving their quality and correctness.
