SBD stands for which concept?

• A. System-Based Design
• B. Set-Bound Design
• C. Sequential Boundary Design
• D. Set-Based Design

Answer: (D)

Set-Based Design is the concept where you keep multiple design options in play, exploring a broad design space and only converging to a final architecture after evaluating how well different options meet requirements, interfaces, and constraints. This approach helps manage uncertainty and reduces the risk of costly late changes by not locking in a single path too early. In practice, you develop and compare several potential subsystems or configurations, run trade studies, and progressively prune options as evidence accumulates, until a robust, well-supported design remains. The other terms listed aren’t standard names for this practice, as they don’t describe the approach of keeping options open and iterating toward a final design based on evidence.
