An Overview of TRIZ Problem-Solving Methodology and its  Applications

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2013, Vol 13, Issue 2

Abstract

 TRIZ, which is a Russian word that stands for “Theory of Inventive Problem Solving”, is a problemsolving methodology that was invented based on the belief that there are universal principles of invention that  are the foundation for creative innovations that help in advancing technology. One of the most widely used  approaches to problem-solving in most technology-related fields is the structured problem-solving methodology.  Actually, TRIZ enhances the structured problem-solving methodology by applying its principles to the first few  phases of the conventional structured methodology with more creative and advanced steps that make the  problem-solving process more efficient and effective. A brief description of the structured problem-solving  methodology is presented since it has a big influence on the original TRIZ methodology. TRIZ’s ways of solving  problems are explained in detail, and several main applications of TRIZ in the technology-related and other  new fields (non-technology) are discussed. Several suggestions are put forward in order to overcome some of  the main issues faced by TRIZ in order to improve its effectiveness in solving problems, especially in nontechnical and non-scientific domains.
