The use of DSMs in both research and industrial practice increased greatly in the 1990s. DSMs have been applied in the building construction, real estate development, semiconductor, automotive, photographic, aerospace, telecom, small-scale manufacturing, factory equipment, and electronics industries, to name a few, as well as in many government agencies.

A small number of [[computer software]] applications incorporate dependency structure matrices. The leaders in this field include BIWAML Technologies' [[PlanWeaver[http://www.adeptmanagement.com/amltechnologies/index.html ADePT Design Builder]]] (employed in [[aerospaceconstruction]], [[defense (military)|defense]] and [[constructionaerospace]] projects), [[Lattix, Inc.]] LDM (used to manage [[software architecture]]), [[DeMAID/GA]], [http://www.dfss-software.com/default.asp Acclaro] and [http://www.problematics.com/ Problematics], [[NDepend]] (for analysis of [[.NET]] applications). The latest version of the Java IDE [[IntelliJ IDEA]] 7.0 includes project dependency structure management since v7.0 Milestone 2. There is an open source DSM application [http://web.sysart.fi/dtangler/ dtangler] for analyzing java code. There is also a [http://tcdev.free.fr free DSM plugin] for [[.NET Reflector]].
