Preface for the publication
in this "TRIZ Home Page in Japan"
(Toru Nakagawa, Jan. 8, 1999)
This paper
by James Kowalick was presented at the First TRIZ International Conference
as cited above,
and translated into Japanese by Toru Nakagawa under the kind
permission
of
American Supplier Institute ,
The TRIZ Institute (The TRIZ Journal)
, and
The author, Mr. James Kowalick.
The Japanese
version has been published in
the Japanese page of
the "TRIZ Home Page
in Japan"
under the permission. We are grateful to ASI, TRIZ Institute, and
Mr. Kowalick
for their
permissions which help Japanese readers understand TRIZ in depth and utilize
TRIZ in their
practices.
In my personal
report of the TRIZ Conference ,
I have cited Kowalick's paper most
important
for understanding TRIZ and developing it further. Mr. Kowalick views
the TRIZ
approach to
be in a mature stage of the S-curve in Russia and yet in an infancy stage
in USA and
western countries. He summarizes the history of TRIZ especially in
the
recent years
in USA, and discusses the "limitations and problems of TRIZ" in his twelve
subsections.
He further presents a few approaches for further advanced development
of TRIZ; his
new theory, the "Triads", is also demonstrated with a number of examples.
I believe
this paper gives us deep and wide range of advises for us to understand
the essence
of TRIZ in its new form to be used in our real applications.
The original,
English version is not published here, because it will appear in the
TRIZ Journal
in the near
future. [Note (April 1):
