Message:   On Holding TRIZ Symposium 2007 in Japan

On Holding TRIZ Symposium 2007 in Japan

June 4, 2007
Toshihiro Hayashi
Secretary General of
Collaborative Board of TRIZ Promoters and Users in Japan

    Since TRIZ, i.e. Theory of Inventive Problem Solving, was introduced to Japan in 1996 as a philosophy, a methodology and a knowledge engineering tool to support technology innovation strongly, a lot of application know-how and experiences have been accumulated in Japan by Japanese users interested in TRIZ.

    With such a background, the TRIZ Symposium organized by the Collaborative Board of TRIZ Promoters and Users in Japan is now in our third year of operation. In the first year three-day Symposium at Shuzenji on Izu Peninsula, we had 21 presentations and 104 attendees. In the second year at Osaka, the Symposium was much enhanced with an increased number of presentations and attendees (34 presentations and 157 attendees). Even though the dissemination of TRIZ in Japanese industries and academia is not yet wide enough, the Symposium ensured the participants that TRIZ has already penetrated steadily in a number of companies and has produced, and is able to produce if applied properly, significant results.

   We are going to hold our Third TRIZ Symposium in Japan in the location near Tokyo, i.e. at TOSHIBA Education & Training Institute in Shin-Yokohama. 35 invited/contributed presentations (including 10 presentations from overseas) will deliver new developments of TRIZ as a methodology, new applications and experiences of using TRIZ, and the ways of TRIZ promotion in their organizations. We are going to have two tutorial courses, i.e. one basic course for those who are relatively new to TRIZ and one advanced course on a specific but significant topic for those who want to study TRIZ more deeply.

    The Symposium this year consists of Oral sessions (either plenary or double-track), Poster sessions for more interactive presentation and discussion, and Networking events in the two evenings with buffet dinner and communications among participants.

    During the Symposium, we are planning to hold a General Meeting for the inauguration of "NPO: Japan TRIZ Society" , as an incorporated organization succeeding the current voluntary organization "Japan TRIZ CB". With the new organization, we are planning to obtain a larger number of members involved in TRIZ and to enhance our TRIZ dissemination activities for wider recognition, understanding, and usage of TRIZ in Japan.

    We wish many people take part in the Third TRIZ Symposium in Japan, 2007, and are looking forward to seeing you at Shin-Yokohama, Japan in August.

 Keynote Lectures and Invited Talks   

No.
Lecturer
Title and brief introduction
date
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. Aug. 31,
10:00-
(80 min.)
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.

Sept. 1,
9:00-
(60 min.)
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.

Aug. 30,
13:20 -
(40 min.)

Invited
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'.

Aug. 30,
15:00-
(40 min.)

Invited
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. Aug. 30,
17:40 -
(40 min.)

Special Session

(Newly set on
Aug. 22, 2007)

It was found lately that 4 people from Thailand are coming to attend our Symposium. So we asked them to write a bief position paper how they have been learning/working on TRIZ and what they expect in the Symposium.  In this Special Session (on the third day afternoon) such people are invited to talk briefly on their position papers, e.g. 'Introducng TRIZ into Thailand', and then we would like to discuss rather freely on the topic. 
Lunch Will have lunch together at the dining hall inside the Center.  Lunch is covered in the Symposium fee.  60 minutes of lunch break.
Buffet Dinner and Communicatons In the evenings of the first and the second days, we will have buffet dinner togeher without seating for the purpose of reception and informal personal communications.  At the dining hall inside the Center.  2 hours each.  Participation is optional; you need to state and pay at the registration.

 

What about Japan TRIZ Society

(Changed on Aug. 22, 2007)

(Aug. 22, 2007) Initially we planned to have a General Assembly Meeting of (expectedly newly-born) NPO Japan TRIZ Society.  But the official approval by Tokyo Metropolitan Office is not ready (delayed until October or December).  So we have decided to have a non-official, more informative meeting to report recent activities of Japan TRIZ CB and to explain future plans of NPO Japan TRIZ Society. 

Symposium participants are invited to join this meeting regardless of having entered Japan TRIZ Society or not.  Sorry but only in Japanese.
