Dear TRIZ Colleagues and WTSP Members

Oct, 26, 2023 Toru Nakagawa (OGU, WTSP Project Leader)

We presented the WTSP Report (6th year, 2023) at the Japan TRIZ Symposium (Aug. 31 - Sept. 1) (online, Tokyo) and

at ETRIA TFC2023 (Sept. 12-14) (online, Offenburg Univ., Germany); and have posted the papers, slides, and videos in "TRIZ Home

Page in Japan" both in English and in Japanese.

https://www.osaka-gu.ac.jp/php/nakagawa/TRIZ/eTRIZ/

This [WTSP] Letter is a guide to these reports and postings and to develop and enhance our World WTSP Catalogs further

with the international collaboration of all of you.

[1] Japanese translation of the full WTSP paper that we presented

at ETRIA TFC2023 was posted on the Japanese page. (Sept. 26)

[2] Reports and announcements on WTSP are posted in the Communication

Forum page in English. (Oct. 3, Oct. 9)

[3} Preliminary Manuscripts of Country Parts of the WTSP Catalogs are published for six countries in Europe:

Austria, Czech Rep., Finland, Greece, Hungary, and Ireland (Toru Nakagawa, Oct. 22, 2023)

Based on the 4th-round Internet surveys (Nov. 2021), the websites of individual countries are revisited to make

preliminary manuscripts of country parts of the World WTSP Catalogs.

Here I show such manuscripts from the countries in Europe (6 of them at first).

The manuscripts are shown in the "Unfinished Source Data Manuscripts" page (at the stage 2d);

The main results are briefly summarized in the Table in .pdf.

I am going to work for many more (about 40-50) countries one by one, but only very slowly in spite of my desire,

partly due to the language barriers. -- Unfortunately, this is too slow.

We set the target plan as Completion of the Gamma Edition of the World WTSP Catalogs

planned for the end of August 2024 (i.e. just before

TFC next year), in order to make good enough manuscripts in many countries.

We sincerely ask for your active involvement in creating and enhancing the WTSP Catalogs in your countries.

You create the Values of the World WTSP Catalogs, and then numerous people will enjoy such Values

in their lives and works, contributing to making our world better.

Let's work Together! Connected !!

Best wishes,

Toru

This [WTSP] Letter is a guide to these reports and postings and to develop and enhance our World WTSP Catalogs further

with the international collaboration of all of you.

Many of you may have received my updated announcement of "TRIZ Home Page in Japan" (Sept. 21) with similar content.

Sorry for bothering you with the overlap of information.

in the World: Let's Enhance the Japan WTSP Catalogs"Useful and Attractive"

(Toru Nakagawa, Darrell Mann, Michael Orloff, Simon Dewulf, Simon Litvin, Valeri Souchkov)

On the Japanese page, we post the Abstract,

Presentation slides (25 slides, in HTML and in PDF), and Presentation video (in MP4, 21 min).

On the English page, we post the Abstract and Slides (25 slides, in PDF).

-- The slides cover some more than the 15 TFC2023 slides.

[2] ETRIA TFC2023: presentation (Sept. 14, 2023) "WTSP Report (6) Catalogs of TRIZ and Around-TRIZ Sites

in the World (Preparing for Gamma Edition) (Toru Nakagawa, Darrell Mann, Michael Orloff,

Simon Dewulf, Simon Litvin, Valeri Souchkov)

The paper (17 pages) is published in the Proceeding (by Springer) and accessible through

https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-42532-5_34 .

On the English page, we post the paper in HTML, the presentation slides (15 slides, in HTML and in PDF ) and

the presentation video (in MP4, 15 slides, 11m12s).

On the Japanese page, the full paper in Japanese translation will be posted soon.

The WTSP project has been working to create Catalogs of TRIZ-related Websites in the world.

The paper describes its vision/significance/goals and the structure and current version of the Catalogs.

Even though the World Catalogs of Around-TRIZ Websites are already compiled/published reasonably well,

the World Catalogs of TRIZ Websites are insufficient due to a lack of contributions from many countries.

Our difficulty has been "Many people support the project, but very few of them actually work to build the Catalogs".

An apparent reason is "the talented people in TRIZ are always too busy in their jobs to work voluntarily for WTSP".

The hidden core reason, we have recently found, is that many TRIZ people have not seen the completed Catalogs and

hence do not recognize possible Values of the Catalogs and who and how to create such Values.

The Values of the WTSP Catalogs depend on a person's position.

For site owners, it is the opportunity to introduce their sites to the world; for TRIZ leaders/experts/practitioners,

it is the overview of the (methodical) development and activities of TRIZ (and related methods);

for TRIZ users/learners, it is a reliable and comprehensible information source for learning and using TRIZ.

These Values can be created by TRIZ leaders/experts/practitioners (including site owners) all over the world.

Based on this recognition, we are going to rebuild the WTSP project to expand and enrich the World Catalogs of TRIZ Sites.

We sincerely ask many TRIZ professionals in the world for their active collaboration.

In this email, I attached the title page of the video and the slide of the concluding remarks.

[3] My Series of Postings on LinkedIn on WTSP Activities

As a short summary of the activities of "TRIZ Home Page in Japan" (especially on the WTSP project), I made a page

collecting my LinkedIn postings (since Dec. 2022).

The postings on LinkedIn every 2 weeks or so intend to show the WTSP activities to a much wider audience interested

in TRIZ and innovation.

A series of my postings are accessible on LinkedIn via:
