oles to designers such as structural engineer, mechanical engineer etc. to
the design task. The model is checked out by these multiple designers;
however, each actor can only edit the section of the model to which their
responsibility has been assigned. When the modified dependencies relate
to parameters outside the users’ domain, the user at this stage have to
communicate to the project manager to make the proposed change. The
final matrix is optimized by the project manager via partitioning. Durations
may be added to the tasks and the optimum schedule of the process is
notified to all roles. If a change occurs while conducting the processes, the
model check out is repeated. At this stage, the DSM helps identify the
affected parameters and manage change in processes.
