title = "Visualizing information flow in engineering change management processes",
abstract = "Engineering Change Management (ECM) processes support the identification of, decision on an implementation of engineering changes. Although several reference ECM processes exist, their current visualization in industry and research rarely includes the dependencies or the information flows among the activities. However, practitioners report lack of transparency and of {"}fast track{"} processes for time-critical changes. This paper proposes an ECM process that is modeled as a network of activities and information with help of DSM-based methods. The proposed process model includes a fast track for time-critical changes and aims to tackle the lack of transparency in current ECM processes. Furthermore, two new DSM-based process visualization approaches are introduced and discussed with regard of the goals of this paper.",
