This makes no sense for any development project beyond a de minimis project. It can be used to identify appropriate teams, work groups, and a sequence of how the tasks can be arranged. Risk interaction within systems and subsystems, between functional and physical elements, can also be modeled with DSM. No interconnections.

Barry Boehm's work in “Software Engineering Economics”. Aleatory and Epistemic uncertainties, which create risk to the success of the project. Since all project work contains uncertainty, reducing this uncertainty - which reduces risk - is the role of the project team and their management. Prentice-Hall, 1981.
