WTSP Letter: (12M-1AB) World WTSP Catalog (Japan Part); Please submit your WTSP Manuscripts (of ◎○ sites) by Jul. 28 (Sun).
Dear WTSP Members,
Hello, how are you?
I hope you and your group are fine and busy in various activities, as ever.
We have less than 3 months left before the ETRIA TFC2019 (Oct. 9-11) when we are going to present the World WTSP Catalogs.
Our WTSP activities are much delayed, or even have not started yet, in many countries.
Reflecting the situations myself, I think that many people do not have clear image of the World WTSP Catalogs.
How do they look like? what sort of Web sites are actually shown? how useful are they? how much efforts do we need for preparing them? etc.
So I decided to show examples:
"World WTSP Catalog (Japan Part)" (containing 26 sites)
in place of the "Japan WTSP Catalog" which I posted in Apr. last year.
The Catalog is posted in my Web site, in the completed form containing the Index and Descriptions of Sites as a Web page.
They are very close to the Manuscripts in Excel and in Word.
You can easily understand how they are built.
First preliminary version of "World WTSP Catalogs" will be posted on Aug. 4, 2019, in the form of a completed Web site.
This version will include only the ◎ (Most important) and ○ (Important) sites, using the Manuscripts submitted by Jul. 28, 2019.
Please submit the information of highly recommendable sites in your country (or anywhere in the world) in the format
specified in our WTSP Practice Guide.
Second preliminary version of "World WTSP Catalogs" will be posted on Sept. 30, 2019, in the form of a completed Web site.
This version will include all the ◎ (Most important),
○ (Important), and □ (Worthy of World Catalog) sites, using the Manuscripts submitted by Sept. 15, 2019.
Please submit your Manuscripts before this due date Sept. 15.
I have just updated my Web site: "TRIZ Home Page in Japan":

-----------------------------------
[1] Short Summary of WTSP Practice Guide:
Practice Guide to Complete the World WTSP Catalogs
(Toru Nakagawa) (Jul. 7; Jul. 14, 2019)
Short Summary is posted for the WTSP Practice Guide .
Structure of World WTSP Catalogs is shown, and the documents expected from each country as the country part of the WTSP
Catalog are described along with the practical preparation process.
We cordially invite you to join this voluntary project for promoting TRIZ and related methodologies further in the world.
-----------
The final form of WTSP Catalogs has been changed from PDF (with links) to HTML (with hyperlinks).
See the figure attached here.
Two-step schedule for preparation is announced:
World WTSP Catalog of ◎○ sites (Manuscripts due: Jul. 28, 2019; Posting: Aug. 4, 2019);
World WTSP Catalogs of ◎○□ sites (Manuscripts due: Sept. 15, 2019; Posting: Sept. 30, 2019).
(Jul. 14, 2019)
[2] World WTSP Catalogs (Japan Part):
WTSP Catalog of TRIZ-related Sites in Japan for the people in the whole world (Toru Nakagawa)
Japan Part of the World WTSP Catalogs has been demonstrated in the new page.
This posting has 3 intentions:
(1) 'The Catalog of TRIZ-related Sites in Japan' posted
last year in English was the English translation of 'Japan WTSP Catalogs' for the people in Japan .
Using the WTSP criteria, all the sites are re-evaluated;
◎〇□ sites to be shown in the World WTSP Catalogs (for all the people in the world),
while ◎〇□ and △ sites in the Japan WTSP Catalogs (for people in Japan).
This sort of differences in the WTSP criteria between World and Country should be recognized in every country.
(2) The new page demonstrates the manuscripts to be prepared by WTSP Teams in every country
(i.e., Flat Table of Sites (in .xlsx) and Descriptions of Sites (in .docx)), and at the same time a completed WTSP Catalog
as a small Web site (i.e., Index page (in .html) and Descriptions of Sites page (in .html) connected with many hyperlinks).
The final form of the World WTSP Catalog is expected to be
the integration of many World WTSP Catalogs (Individual Part)
coming from Country Teams and Top-down Surveys.
Flat Tables of Sites are integrated into a single Flat Table
in Excel, and it is sorted/re-arranged in Excel to form
a suitable Index page in HTML.
The 'Descriptions of Sites' files are converted into HTML
files and are simply gathered in a folder.
(3) For Completing the World WTSP Catalogs before TFC2019,
I am planning the following 2 steps .
(Step 1) Using the manuscripts submitted by Jul. 28,
I am going to make a World WTSP Catalog containing
the sites ◎〇 only and post it around Aug. 4.
(Step 2) Using the manuscripts submitted by Sept. 15,
I am going to make the World WTSP Catalogs containing the sites ◎〇□ and post them around Sept. 30.
I wish many TRIZ colleagues in the world to contribute their WTSP manuscripts by following the WTSP Practice Guide .
The present page illustrates the manuscripts and the prototype of the completed World WTSP Catalogs.

Jun. 10, 2019 Toru Nakagawa (WTSP Project Leader)
Dear WTSP Members,
I have just posted an important WTSP articles
in the "TRIZ Home Page in Japan".
http://www.osaka-gu.ac.jp/php/nakagawa/TRIZ/eTRIZ/
We are behind the time schedule, but surely we can achieve
our goal by following this Practice Guide.
--------------
[1] Practice Guide to Complete the World WTSP Catalogs and
to Report It at ETRIA TFC2019 (Toru Nakagawa)
This article is our Practice Guide for completing our
World WTSP Catalogs before TFC2019 (to be held on
Oct. 9-11, 2019 at Marrakech, Morocco).
It is based on the last two sections of our
recently-submitted TFC2019 paper (written in black fonts),
which reflects our recent discussions .
To make this an effective Practice Guide, I have added various notes,
referring to existing information (in green fonts) and mentioning new and detailed information (in blue fonts).
Practice Guide is written step by step with the contents:
Practical Approaches for Completing the World WTSP Catalogs
- Reconsidering the difficulties
- To get more WTSP Members and form WTSP Teams in every country
- To list up and survey TRIZ-related Web sites
- To visit individual sites to understand, describe, and evaluate them step by step
- To write and review manuscripts of the Country WTSP Catalog
- To integrate and build the World WTSP Catalogs
Concluding Remarks: What is most crucial for the success of WTSP?
This article has 2 important findings.
(a) I have obtained a clear and practical technical vision
of World WTSP Catalogs in the form of Interactive Edition;
composed of the Index file (.pdf) and many (Country) List
of Sites files (.pdf), where both types of files can be built and updated easily.
See the Figure n the right.
(b) Forming WTSP Teams with Country Editors in every country
is most crucial for the success of WTSP.
We eagerly wish to work Together ! Connected !! with you
for further proliferation of TRIZ and related methodologies.
Please feed us back any of your questions, comments,
suggestions, and reports.
Best wishes,
Toru
