Dataset for "The emergent structures within digital engineering work: what can we learn from dynamic DSMs of near-identical systems design projects?"

Design structure matrices (DSMs) support engineers in the management of dependencies across product and organisational architectures. This dataset contains the underlying data used to generate dynamic DSMs for the cross-project comparison of three near-identical systems design projects. The data is stored in an SQLite database and a Jupyter notebook is provided to demonstrate how to access the data.

Keywords:
Engineering Design, Project management, Product lifecycle management
