Title and brief introduction
Documents posted
Keynote (1) Larry Ball (Honeywell, USA) "Hierarchical TRIZ Algorithms": Larry Ball's Illustrated Course Material "Hierarchical TRIZ Algorithms" were published in the TRIZ Journal and then have been reposted in "TRIZ Home Page in Japan" in Japanese translation by Toshio Takahara and Toru Nakagawa.  The course mateial is unique in its general structure and very attractive with a plenty of illustrated examples.  Since the material has the volume of 160 pages, it is nice to listen to the author explain the general concept of the course material and his ways of applying TRIZ to real problems.

Keynote (2) Simon Dewulf (CREAX, Belgium)

"Variation of System Properties for New or Improved Function": CREAX has been carrying out an extensive patent analysis project and building knowledge bases with new frameworks in TRIZ. For improving existing functions and achieving new functions, they recognized the need of change in the attributes (or properties) of the relevant parts in the system.  Thus the author proposes a new approach of utilizing the property changes, especially in the form of trends of evolution of technical systems, for creative problem solving.

Invited
Talk (1)
Toshihiro Hayashi  (T. Hayashi Professional Engineer Office) "Design and Development Process Engineering Technologies and TRIZ":   For increasing the customer satisfaction, we should have methods, having wide applicability over different subject fields, in the development and design phases so as to specify requirements, devise the design solutions, and ensure high quality.  The author calls them 'Design and Development Process Engineering Technologies' in general, and points out that they are essential for development and design engineers.  He set TRIZ as an important component in them.

Talk (2)
Seiichiro Tamai (Matsushita Electric Industries) "A New Intellectual Property Model for the Knowledge-based Society": Even though Japan is trying to be strong in IP, there remain varous weakpoints in the active use of IPs. The key to overcoming them, the author beliebes, is to link the IPs with the merchandises using them and to advertise them together.  Thus he proposes a model of 'Brand Value Creation with IP'.

Talk (3)
Naoaki Okuzumi (Toshiba) "Introductory Review of Innovation Activities in Toshiba": Toshiba introduced Six Sigma company-wide since 1999, and added the 'i cube' program since 2005, for the purpose of deploying the innovation activities.  In these activities, some new techniques including TRIZ have also been introduced and examined.  The author will present the overview of Toshiba's innovation activities and their ways of applying various tools including TRIZ.

(2) Advanced Course Manabu Sawaguchi (SANNO Institute for Management) Tutorial on a specific but important topic. "Future-Generation Product Planning Activities Based on the Patterns of Technical Evolution".  The author will give an overall review on this topic and explain his own approach. 

 

Remarks: Japan TRIZ CB has decided to publish the slides (and papers, if supplied) of the keynote lectures by posting them in its Official Pages as shown above.  The contents of  3 Invited talks and all contributed presentations at the Symposium, however, have been decided not to be published in its Official Pages (just as done for the previous TRIZ Symposia in Japan).  Nevertheless, since the Authors of presentations at the Symposium have the copyrights of their own papers, they are able to submit their own papers to any journals or Web sites (including those in Japan) for publication or posting; in such a publication the Authors are requested to refer to the Third TRIZ Symposium in Japan.
