The DSM Applications Knowledge Base contains publications classified according to a standardized categorization scheme developed in the systematic literature review. The categories describe the application context, purpose, dependency and structure modeling method, and primary matrix operation used in each publication.

Advanced Filtering in Excel
The online table provides basic search and sorting functionality. For more advanced filtering options, please download and use the Excel version of the DSM Literature Database.
The Excel file allows you to combine multiple filters across different categories, similar to a database query.
Search Tips
To obtain the best search results, please note the following:
- Use quotation marks (” “) to search for an exact phrase.
- Example:
"product development"
- Example:
- A space is interpreted as an OR operator.
- Example:
DSM aerospacereturns entries containing DSM OR aerospace.
- Example:
- Use the filter arrows in the column headers to filter by one or more categories simultaneously (e.g., Industry Sector, Purpose, Application Discipline, DSM Method).
- Sorting can be applied independently for each column by selecting Sort A–Z or Sort Z–A from the filter menu.
