Exploiting TRIZ Tools in Interaction Design

Process Tools for Interaction Design

In this work we describe tools that can be used to extend the User-Centered Design (UCD) process in its individual phases, such as user research and analysis, ideation, prototyping and usability testing. Doing so can potentially result in the three key advantages of a) involving a broader audience in the design process, b) simplifying multidisciplinary team communication, and c) providing tools...

Patterns, Tools and Models for Interaction Design

In recent years the re-use of already existing solutions and ideas has become more and more crucial. Re-inventing the wheel over and over again is not feasible. Especially model based development approaches suffer from the lack of libraries populated with existing solutions and ideas which must just be tweaked in order to applicable to different context of use. Patterns have the potential to ov...

Improving Environmental Design Using TRIZ Inventive Principles

This paper describes design principles that were extracted from the profiles of products redesigned to be more environmentally benign. These extracted principles will be used to support the work of creating a Design for Environment (DfE) methodology called ENVRIZ that provides product designers with a procedure for creating more environmentally benign products and overcoming environmental contr...
