Editor's Note (Toru Nakagawa, Jun. 21, 2015)

This is the USIT Case Study No. 3 documented in the "Collection of USIT Case Studies" . UIST is a concise, consistent, and general process for practicing the General Methodology of Creative Problem Solving (CrePS). The process is explained in detail in the USIT Manual , and it uses the 'Six-Box Scheme'.

The present HTML page shows first 3 introductory slides of the case study and the last overview slide summarizing the case in the 'Six-Box Scheme'. The whole set of slides are posted in the PDF file .

This Case Study was originally made by Toru Nakagawa at the 3-day USIT Training Seminar conducted by Dr. Ed Sickafus in Mar. 1999 . It used the Particles Method, an extension of Altshuller's Smart Little People's Modeling (SLP), effectively in solving the problem. In the description of the present Case Study, I inserted the Atttribute and Functional Analyses, which were skipped in the original case study, for the purpose to illustrate the USIT process in the 'Six-Box Scheme'. (Please note that you may and may not apply these analyses in the actual case.)
