TRIZ Methodology: The Science of Innovation

Accelerating Innovation at Intel

TRIZ (Russian acronym for Theory of Inventive Problem Solving) is a set of methods, principles and strategies for enabling Innovation.

Key Findings of Analyzing over 2,000,000 Patents1. Principles for solving Problems Problems and

solutions are repeated across industries and sciences2. Technology Trends to evolve a technical system to the

next generation Patterns of technical evolution are repeated across industries and sciences

3. Scientific Effects can be used to solve problems in unique ways – enabling Disruptive TechnologyInnovations used scientific effects outside the field where the original problem was found

TRIZ helps people think analogously, enabling

innovative solutions beyond the current disciplines.

Spawns ideas based on Laws of

Technological Evolution

Uses a growing database of over

9,000 scientific effects

A Moore’s Law for ALL Engineering SystemsThe Law of Ideality

1. Ideality is the over-riding driver for system evolution2. Over time all Engineering systems provide greater levels of

functionality, with higher performance and value.3. Ideality = “Value” = Increasing benefits (performance)

Lower costs and less harm
