Abstract: This paper aims to investigate the state-of-the-art in models and frameworks for set-based design and identify the main gaps and contributions in the literature. As a result, 121 models were analysed. Most models are quantitative, computational, engineering design-oriented and focus on early stages. Although the narrowing down process plays a central role in the set-based design, very little is addressed regarding its management processes. No model was found describing the inputs and outputs of the set-based design and the narrowing down process simultaneously. Thus, knowledge is dispersed and focused on specific parts. The relevance of this study relies on providing a comprehensive investigation of the state-of-the-art, identifying opportunities to advance in this study field and providing recommendations for future works seeking to support the development of new methods for implementing and managing set-based design, enabling and encouraging its adoption.
