    • Do-It-Right-Fisrt-Time (DRFT) Approach to DSF Restructuring 

      Yassine, Ali A.; Whitney, Daniel E.; Lavine, Jerry; Zambito, Tony (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Engineering Systems Division, 2001-09)
      In this paper, we argue, using two real-world applications from the automotive industry, that the biggest benefit of a Design Structure Matrix (DSM) model may come not from resequencing and partitioning, but rather from ...

    • Designing a Requirement Driven Product Development Process 

      Dong, Qi; Whitney, Daniel E. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Engineering Systems Division, 2001-09)
      This paper presents a technique to obtain a Design Structure Matrix (DSM) from a Design Matrix (DM). This technique enables us to obtain the design information flow pattern at early stage of the design, and apply the DSM ...

    • Improving the Software Upgrade Value Stream 

      Ippolito, Brian; Murman, Earll M. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Engineering Systems Division, 2001-12)
      This paper reports findings from a two-year study to identify Lean practices for deriving software requirements from aerospace system level requirements, with a goal towards improving the software upgrade value stream. The ...
