Introduction to TRIZ, A Technological Philosophy for Creative Problem Solving

Author: Toru Nakagawa
Abstract:
TRIZ is a technological philosophy born in the former USSR and is a methodology for creative problem solving. TRIZ has extracted principles of invention from analysis of a huge body of patent bases, has revealed laws of evolution of technical systems, and has established general procedures for problem solving, especially for solving contradictions. The key to penetration of TRIZ into industries is its simplification. The present paper expresses the essence of TRIZ concisely, and introduces USIT as an easier procedure for creative problem solving containing such TRIZ' essence.
