Abstract

People usually face two kinds of problems: those with generally known solutions and those with unknown solutions. Those with known solution can usually be solved by information found in books, technical journals, or other subject matter. The other type of problems is the one with no known solution. It is called an inventive problem. "TRIZ" is the acronym in Russian (Теория решения изобретательских задач) for "Theory of Inventive Problem Solving" created by Genrikh Altshuller who was a patent investigator in Russian Navy in 1946 looking for inventive cross-disciplinary analogous solutions to various engineering problems (through the law of increasing ideality and engineering parameters' contradictions and the corresponding conflict resolution strategies). This is an INSE6240 project presentation discussing TRIZ.
