DSMs stem from diverse roots. A static DSM is equivalent to an N-square diagram or an incidence matrix. A time-based DSM is akin to a precedence diagram or the matrix representation of a directed graph. The time-based DSM (and the "DSM" term itself) originated with Don Steward, who coined the term “design structure matrix” in the 1960s. Steward's DSM grew from the use of matrices to solve mathematical systems of equations. [[Christopher Alexander]] presented a similar matrix-based design method in his 1964 book [[Notes on the Synthesis of Form]].

Managers are continually hired, reassigned and dismissed as projects require. A Matrix Structure can be temporary, lasting only as long as a project, or more permanent lasting for years in some form within a company.
