Automatic generation of design structure matrices through the evolution of product models

Abstract: Dealing with component interactions and dependencies remains a core and fundamental aspect of engineering, where conflicts and constraints are solved on an almost daily basis. Failure to consider these interactions and dependencies can lead to costly overruns, failure to meet requirements, and lengthy redesigns. Thus, the management and monitoring of these dependencies remains a crucial activity in engineering projects and is becoming ever more challenging with the increase in the number of components, compone… Show more

“…Few works have implemented the idea of repository mining in the field of mechanical engineering and design science, however while mining proprietary data sources. Gopsill et al (2016) used the versioning history of two student formula 1 development projects in order to identify design dependencies between subsystems. Using the temporal evolution of product CAD model editions, they were able to automatically deduct the design structure matrices (DSM) of these products, a critical information when it comes to managing product development processes.…”

“…An interaction between two project contributors is defined as the edition of a common file in the course of the project. The subsequent edition of the same file by two contributors is therefore considered in this article as the reference unit of observable collaboration, as in Gopsill et al (2016), Piccolo et al (2017) and partially in Menichinelli (2017). The versioning metadata delivered by the GitHub API is post-processed in order to produce file co-edition networks (as defined in Asri et al 2017).…”

“…To overcome the limitations of the current generation methods, researchers have begun to investigate how the output of engineering work can be used to elicit the connected nature of system components (Morkos, Shankar & Summers 2012;Senescu et al 2012;Gopsill et al 2016). Examples include the tracking of file exchanges between individuals (Senescu et al 2012), aggregation and processing of change request documents (Morkos et al 2012;Ghlich, Hildebrand & Schellert 2018) and the capture of file edit co-occurrences to build a probabilistic model of dependencies (Gopsill et al 2016). Each has the potential to provide a more automated, system agnostic, objective and real-time method that results in the generation of DSMs that are in line with the evolution of the project.…”
