is not managed efficiently
use a DSM-based plan

Title: “Managing the Dynamics of Product Development Process for New Product development”
My PhD dissertation “Managing DPDP for NPD” focuses on developing a framework for the management of NPD processes (iterative processes with process schemes that changes according to the evolving product knowledge). The framework incorporates the Design Structure Matrix (DSM) method and Petri nets. The DSM method was used for modeling the product knowledge, and then using reordering algorithms for planning the design processes. Petri nets formalization concepts were used for formally proving process structure properties that result from DSM-based plans, and allow implementation of the on-going process changes during the design process at run-time.
