This document discusses the overall design and usage of a program for partitioning and grouping a design structure matrix (DSM). It loads a DSM file into a binary matrix, uses topological sorting to perform partitioning in two steps, and allows for grouping via condensation. Testing was done using JUnit classes. The program allows users to open a DSM file, perform partitioning with the click of a button, name and view the results of grouping, and create a new empty DSM.

5. Partitioning - 1
Load Matrix

ArrayList<ArrayList<ClusterEntry>
Topological Sorting

6. Partitioning - 2
We have not realized
Grouping Partitioning
(Condensation)
Topological Sorting

Export Matrix

7. Testing
Create Junit Testing Class(Automatically)
In NetBeans
Junit Test Window

8. OOP Concept

9. Usage of our program

10. Read DSM File

Open a DSM File

11. Read DSM File (Cont)

Select DSM File and Open

12. Partitioning

Click the Partitioning Icon

13. Partitioning (Cont)

the result of partitioning will be appear

14. Grouping

Click the Group Icon

15. Grouping (Cont)

Write in a group name, then you will be
show the result of grouping

16. New DSM

Select the “File -> New DSM”

17. New DSM (Cont)

Input the number of rows

18. New DSM (Cont)

Then temporarily matrix and cluster will
be appear in this program.
