Reducing risk in innovation

Dependency and Structure Modelling (DSM) techniques support the management of complexity by focusing attention on the elements of a complex system and how they are related to each other.

The papers were presented at the 15th International DSM Conference held in August 2013 in Melbourne, Australia
