Editor's Note (Toru Nakagawa, Aug. 3, 2019)

Descriptions of sites expected in this page are not documented well, because at that time I wanted to survey more sites rather than describe individual sites closely.  This page actually corresponds to the information in the Index page.  We wish descriptions of sites to be written later with the collaboration of many colleagues.

About:  Ideation International is a private, U.S.-based company founded in 1992 and headquartered in , Michigan. The company focuses on the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ). Ideation provides a structured methodology for resolving complex problems, marketed via educational programs, analytical services and a line of software, TRIZSoft, which together provide the resources necessary to control the innovation process. Ideation is fortified by a staff composed of the world's leading TRIZ scientists, who have advanced this scientific theory with powerful new applications and software tools to meet the needs of today's competitive marketplace.

(Four pillars of methods/software tools):  IPS (Inventive Problem Solving): IPS helps solve complex technological problems by supporting both the analytical and solution-synthesis stages of problem solving.
APD (Anticipatory Failure Determination): AFD is a cost-effective method of analyzing and predicting failures in products and processes. It guides users in documenting the situation, formulating the related problem(s), developing hypotheses, verifying potential failure scenarios, and finding solutions to prevent or eliminate the problem(s).
DE (Directed Evolution):  DE drives Innovation and growth proactively instead of relying on reactive responses to traditional and uncertain technological forecasting. DE is a process for analyzing and evaluating a system from both technological and market standpoints, developing a comprehensive set of possible scenarios for future evolution, establishing a decisive course of action, securing intellectual capital and defining a plan to create next-generation products, processes, and technologies.
IP (Intellectual Property): IP validates and increases the value of your Intellectual Property. Our analysis will reveal opportunities for enhancing your IP's value and protecting it from infringement and circumvention.

Altshuller in 1989 and studied, used, and taught TRIZ and invention algorithms for many years, while keep brushing up his own undrstanding.  He posted his teaching materials in the TRIZ Journal in 2002 and revised one "Hierarchical TRIZ Algorithms" in 2005.  The present eBooks "TRIZ Power Tools" were posted in May 2018, after much revisions.  The contents are mainly based on TRIZ but reflects other methods including Design Thinking, Disruptive Innovations and Marketing, Blue Ocean Strategy, Theory of Constraints, and One Simple Idea.  He says the best way to learn deeply is to recreate knowledge after your own understanding, according to modern learning theory.  All of the books and materials on this site are free.  While all of the class materials are copyrighted they can be downloaded and printed for personal and classroom use without fear of copyright violation.  It is remarkable that the texts written in English can be translated automatically into (practically) any language with the Google translator without waiting.

The contents are composed of two big groups.  (A) Inventive Jobs (e.g., Discovering markets, Creating offerings (products/services), Designing and prototyping, Reducing offering burdens, Resolving problems, Selling of licensing your offering)  and (B) Inventive Skills (e.g., Resolving contradictions, Working with functions, Idealizing useful functions, Idealizinf informing functions, Idealizing harmful functions, Dscovering cause, Discovering why targeted objects are required, Mobilizing function resources, Neutralizing harmful functions).  These jobs and skills areto be used in various ways of appropriate combinations, as guided by the eBook navigation.

Description of Introduction   *

This is a system of eBooks authored principally by Larry Ball with help from the rest of the coauthors. 

It is based, principally on the other books and authors cited in the sections on where the materials come from.   

Immediately on entering the website, there are 4 short videos which include:

  1. How the algorithms in the books are being continually updated.
  2. The primary sources for the algorithms
  3. Descriptions of each eBook and how they relate to each other based on a hierarchy of decisions.
  4. How to navigate the eBooks by combining inventing Skills to accomplish inventive Jobs.
  5. How to apply the eBook algorithms at different levels depending on need.
  6. How to use the examples and practice problems
  7. How to use the eBooks to create your own innovation processes.

Larry was introduced to TRIZ by reading "TRIZ as an Exact Science" by G. Altshuller in 1989.  Following that, he studied, used, and taught TRIZ and invention algorithms for many years, while continuing to read more TRIZ books and articles.

He began posting his teaching materials in the TRIZ Journal in 2002 and its revised edition "Hierarchical TRIZ Algorithms" in 2005.

The present eBooks "TRIZ Power Tools" were posted in May 2018, after much revisions. 

The contents are mainly based on TRIZ but reflects other methods including Design Thinking, Disruptive Innovations and Marketing, Blue Ocean Strategy, Theory of Constraints, and One Simple Idea. 

He believes that the best way to learn TRIZ deeply is to create your own product design and inventing algorithms after your own understanding, according to modern learning theory.

All of the books and materials on this site are free yet copyrighted.  In spite of the copyright, they can be downloaded and printed for personal and classroom use without fear of copyright violation. 

While written in English, each of the eBooks can be translated automatically into (practically) any language with the Google translator without waiting.

The contents are composed of two big groups.  (A) Inventive Jobs (e.g., Discovering markets, Creating offerings (products/services), Designing and prototyping, Reducing offering burdens, Resolving problems, Selling of licensing your offering) 

and (B) Inventive Skills (e.g., Resolving contradictions, Working with functions, Idealizing useful functions, Idealizing informing functions, Idealizing harmful functions, Discovering cause, Discovering why targeted objects are required, Mobilizing function resources, Neutralizing harmful  functions).  These jobs and skills are to be used in various ways of appropriate combinations, as guided by the eBook navigation

About:  Who We Are:  Goodreads is the world's largest site for readers and book recommendations. Our mission is to help people find and share books they love. Goodreads launched in January 2007
Top page:  Meet your next favorite book. -- Deciding what to read next? -- You're in the right place. Tell us what titles or genres you've enjoyed in the past, and we'll give you surprisingly insightful recommendations.
What are your friends reading? -- Chances are your friends are discussing their favorite (and least favorite) books on Goodreads.
A Message From Our Co-Founder:   When I was in second grade, I discovered the Hardy Boys series. Ever since, I've loved to read — both for fun and to improve my mind. And I'm always looking for the next great book.    One afternoon while I was scanning a friend's bookshelf for ideas, it struck me: when I want to know what books to read, I'd rather turn to a friend than any random person or bestseller list.
So I decided to build a website – a place where I could see my friends' bookshelves and learn about what they thought of all their books. Elizabeth, my co-founder (and now my wife) wrote the site copy and I wrote the code. We started in my living room, motivated by the belief that there was a better way to discover and discuss good books, and that we could build it.
Goodreads is that site. It is a place where you can see what your friends are reading and vice versa. You can create "bookshelves" to organize what you've read (or want to read). You can comment on each other's reviews. You can find your next favorite book. And on this journey with your friends you can explore new territory, gather information, and expand your mind.     Knowledge is power, and power is best shared among readers.    Otis Chandler Co-Founder
