While TRIZ is increasingly developing both in research and education, new users always encounter difficulties in their first attempts to practice it. In such situation, Altshuller’s original matrix often appears as an “easy-to-beginwith” tool. However, while not being representative of what TRIZ really is, it continues to seduce new users, teachers and trainers. Several approaches to automate t...

The paper illustrates an original model and a dialogue-based software application that have been developed by integrating the logic of ARIZ with some OTSM-TRIZ models, in order to guide a user, also with no TRIZ background, to the analysis of inventive problems. The dialogue-based procedure brings to the construction of a model of the inventive problem, which is used both to trigger new solutio...

The use of resources is an excellent concept for solving the contradiction problem in Theory Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ; Russian acronym) methodology. However, it always assumed that a proposed solution uses external elegant and perfect. This paper presents example simulation 3D modelling using FlexSim, which shows can give rise to inaccurate waiting times queue. provides alternative proce...

Due to the rise of aging population, effective utilization of healthcare resources has become an important issue. With the advance of ICT technology, the application of tele-healthcare service has received more attention than ever. The main purpose of this research is to investigate how to conduct innovative design for tele-healthcare service based on user’s perspectives. First, the healthcare ...

Inventive problems from many domains are usually problems we are not able to solve. This problem insolvability is often due to the incomplete or unmatched representation model of the problem that does not correspond to the given problem. In this paper, we introduce two problem solving theories for the solutionless problems: Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) and dialectical based methods and...

A key element to designing software architectures of good quality is the systematic handling of contradicting quality requirements and the structuring principles that support them. The theory of inventive problem solving (TRIZ) by Altshuller offers tools that can be used to define such a systematic way. This paper describes the idea and preliminary results of using inventive principles and the ...

This paper proposes guidelines for a systematic patent circumvention strategy utilizing innovation and TRIZ tools. It focuses on starting from a landscape of patents and claims of an existing patent to create solutions that circumvent this existing patent. Information gathered from various sources is used to create the landscape of patents and claims, and circumvention opportunities are categor...
